"I pulled Lacy over in the middle of the night. Wear a badge long enough in this fucking county, guy with the Devil in his Lincoln doesn't sound half bug-shit crazy. He asked me to trust him. God help me, I did. I used to dream about you. I can't remember my own dead wife's face, but I never forgot yours. Not for 27 fucking years."

I definitely want to find things that are challenging to me, that ask me to do things that I haven't done before. But also, I want to be in things that put me more central to the story. Most of the characters that I've done, well, all the characters that I've done — have been supporting parts, which are great, and they've been great supporting parts, and I'm super happy and grateful to have been in those parts, but I would like to play leading parts.

What I’ve learned in the past years of being in this career is that for me, it’s very important that I do things that have integrity and that won’t embarrass my family. That’s not to say I always want to play good guys or historical characters who are on the right side of history, but I want there to be some dimension and some heart to everything that I do. I also want to know what it’s like to be at the center of the story and not on the periphery.

"You know when you get a song stuck in your head, and you can't think about anything else what you were doing five minutes ago, what you wanted for dinner all you can think about is the fucking Bee Gees, or whatever. When we were kids, you were that song for me."

"I waited for you. I waited for 27 years. I rescued you from that basement, and I didn't ask for any of this."

“‘For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.’ (Romans 6:23)”

"'Let me stand athwart the doorway' I told Him. But God... he doesn't take requests. So I waited... for years... for instructions. And then, one day, one beautiful day, God answered."
