Quote
1 I don’t know the politics of Hollywood. Am I hungry for great material? Every actor is. How I can get to it, that’s another story.
2 I have been walking these [New York] streets and taking subways all of my adult life, and before I was just another face in the crowd. It’s pretty annoying to be suddenly looked at as some exotic bird in the zoo.
3 [on why he left Law & Order (1990)]: “‘Law and Order’ is completely story-driven and completely characterless, really. If you do that format for five years and you’re an actor, you’re bound to get bored. It wears on you. And it was really wearing on me. But you need a job, and I felt awfully blessed to be in New York City and to be doing a show that was considered intelligent in the world of TV. But hey, five years is enough time.”
4 I don’t like NYPD Blue (1993) because it tries to pretend it’s a New York show. You know it’s shot in a Hollywood back-lot. It’s so L.A., so un-New York….They all try to talk New York. They all sound stupid. Law & Order (1990) is one hundred times more authentic.
