I don't really approach a character as to whether or not it's good or bad. I just approach a character as to where it lives in me.

I just find that there's something about looking back on interviews, whether for purposes of remembering what I said about something or if it's for posterity when I'm 75.

'Heroes' really changed the game for me in a way that nothing before it had.

What scares me? Oh, now that's a big question. I don't know what scares me - cockroaches, nuclear apocalypse. Fear is an interesting thing. It has a place in all of our lives. I try to be as fearless as possible. I don't always succeed, but I like to think I try.

I love when you aren't accountable to anybody or anything, and you can just be wherever you are.

The interesting thing about my character Sylar is that my strengths as an actor seemed to go completely against the shape of a character in the shadow.
