Post 9/11, so much has changed in New York that it does not give you that homely feeling which it did before.

I did theater at Carnegie, and in Pittsburgh and New York.

I did not want to leave the Mets and I did not want to leave New York.

New York always feels more like my hometown than the places where I actually grew up (which weren't far from New York), perhaps because I did my artistic "growing up" while working in this crazy, wonderful city back in my twenties. Although I love the quieter, slower, nature-rich life I live now in the sheep-dotted hills of Devon, there are ways in which I still feel more truly myself here in New York, more than anywhere else. Even after all this time in the desert and on Dartmoor. Strange, isn't it?

In Washington, no one believes anything unless it comes from 'The New Yorker,' 'New York Times' editorial page, or 'The Washington Post.'

I wanted to be a New York City cop before I became an actor.
