After three years in L.A., I began to dream of my glory days on the boards. But it's very difficult to make a living as a theater actor in New York, which is why I moved out here, and I always had an ambition to work in television. I am a great admirer of the format, and I think it's how we tell long stories.

I live in a craftsman house, but I'm a big fan of modernist and mid-century furniture and architecture, too. But my dream is to do a truly original chair design, something that is all these different things but is my own, too.

There's a kind of integrity to being an observer of a culture. I think Canadians have that privilege innately. We are, like, the observers of the American culture.

I think the first table read I ever did, my hand was vibrating the whole time.

Gay marriage - it's not about two people being gay: it's about two people who love each other and who have decided to commit to each other for the exact same reasons any other couple would get married.

Luke Macfarlane

Most important, in portraying gay people... it's just like portraying anybody else.

The thing about watching a show about the Iraq war, especially for an American audience, is that it reminds them they're responsible in some way.

Luke Macfarlane

I don't think a lot of the news outlets examine the effect of war on a family.

I was in a band when I was in high school, and I was bitten by the performance bug, if anything else.

I had this notion that maybe I wanted to be an actor... I thought it might be a neat career. I thought if I was going to try that, I should shoot for the best, and I auditioned for Julliard.

There are very few things that 13 million people tune in to witness, so television is a really relevant and powerful thing.

I've always actually taken very good care of body.

Growing up, one of the shows that the entire family ate dinner at the table was 'Star Trek: The Next Generation.' That was one of the greatest television shows ever, and then I'm a fan of 'Firefly.'
