Stephen Root People Quotations

My influences are people like Burgess Meredith, Jackie Gleason, Art Carney. Really good character actors than stars because they do more interesting things. Some of your favorite movies are ones you visit again are due to the great character actors in them.

People are on their computers more than watching TV, because you can only watch voyeur TV, which is basically what reality shows are, for so long.

The more you work, the more people see your work and would like to work with you, and vice versa.

You have to remind casting directors out here that you don't just do one thing. There's a lot of people who do just one thing.

In TV, when you're doing guest roles, you're gliding into a zone where people are already very comfortable. They go in and go to work every day. You're coming in, and it's a brand-new environment, so you have to get it... and then you're gone again.

The ratio of people to cake is too big.
