I do spend a lot of weekends on the road. I have to pace myself. It can be pretty busy, but I'm not out in the Afghan desert with 70 pounds on my back, away from my family for a year at a time. I keep a good perspective on it.

Careers, like rockets, don't always take off on time. The trick is to always keep the engine running.

'The Stand' came out in May of '94 and was seen by 60 million people a night for four nights, and then two months later, 'Forrest Gump' opened. So within a very short time, I went from being depressed about not getting any work to being in two of the most popular shows of the year.

Careers, like rockets, don’t always take off on schedule. The key is to keep working the engines.

Weekends are sacred for me. They're the perfect time to relax and spend time with family and friends.

I have veterans in my family. But I didn't know anything about DAV, Disabled American Veterans.
