I felt deep within me that the highest point a man can attain is not Knowledge, or Virtue, or Goodness, or Victory, but something even greater, more heroic and more despairing: Sacred Awe!” – The...

Whenever I was on the podium, it felt weird. I was obviously happy to have done well, but it wasn’t truly happy from the bottom of my heart.

I’d rather play a tune on a horn, but I’ve always felt that I didn’t want to train myself. Because when you get a train, you’ve got to have an engine and a caboose. I...

I know how I felt when I saw things like ‘Fame’ on television when I was growing up and how that was an exceptional magnet for me to want to explore the theater. I can...

There was this project I really wanted before ‘Glee’ and I didn’t get cast – I went in about 13 times and I was so bummed when I didn’t get it. But then a month...

Many Scandinavian writers who had made their name in literary fiction felt they wanted to have a go at the crime novel to show they could compete with the best. If Salman Rushdie had been...
