Don't try to be somebody you're not because it doesn't work.

Just be yourself, stay true to your core values, and really just stay abreast of the issues. ↗

I think it's like, you know, you can't get ahead of yourself, because no amount of success or exposure or opportunity is going to really matter or be ultimately fulfilling unless you can be totally present in what you're doing right now. ↗

I would love to be a voice in this maelstrom of chaos and obsessive celebrity infatuation that says, 'Let's talk about something that matters'. ↗

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. ↗
