There's really one character for every actor. The voyage is to find that one character.

I think life is self-examination. Certainly the voyage that one takes.

When you work as an actor, you've got to feel safe even in what appears to be the simplest things.

My feeling was that, as much as Richard Dean Anderson is a beloved actor and character in the show, Ben is coming in with an established fan base from another show playing a great character, and he's just very enthusiastic to be there. Fun to work with. It looks very bright.

When I started acting, it was really the way for me to be able to communicate.

Mindfulness is a quality that's always there. It's an illusion that there's a meditation and post-meditation period, which I always find amusing, because you're either mindful or you're not.
