I've been largely an improvisational actor for most of my career, except for when I've worked with the Coen brothers.
My career has been full of remarkable coincidences that have nothing to do with me.
A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night.
I was kind of torn between playing music or playing college football. I was going to college and really focusing on my music career.
I knew early I wanted to follow my father into the military. He did a full 30-year career and retired as a full colonel in the Marines after graduating from Allentown H.S. and later from Cornell University.
I think I had four concussions throughout my career that were diagnosed, and I guess that I've had seven more. But the fact that three of them came in a four month span when I was making a comeback in 2004 is a little bit scary.
Comedians tend to find a comfort zone and stay there and do lamer versions of themselves for the rest of their career.
For most of my career I did one comic a day, every day, including weekends and holidays.
I come to Comic-Con in San Diego because this is where those fans are - those to whom I owe the longevity of my career.
Listen, if my career was to end tomorrow, I would have no complaints whatsoever.
If the price of continuing my political career is to be complicit in a really bad thing then that’s not a price I’m prepared to pay.
I don't believe that the public knows what it wants; this is the conclusion that I have drawn from my career.
I will prove that a great conducting career is expecting me.
Each book, intuitively sensed and, in the case of fiction, intuitively worked out, stands on what has gone before, and grows out of it. I feel that at any stage of my literary career it could have been said that the last book contained all the others.
I contemplated a career at NIH at one point. I have a neuroscience background.
I had vied for a championship; I had been involved in being a No. 1 contender, and having runs where I got close but I never got there. Being able to finally get there and be the guy to carry the load and carry it for a while, I felt like I arrived, and it validated my career.
What I immediately recognized about Wall Street in 1983 was that it was a continuation of my career in theater. Wall Street is a big theater, and it's all illusions.
Wanda Sykes and I have had similar career trajectories. We're both from the D.C. area. She spent five years working as a contracting specialist for the NSA, and I got my master's in public health.
I could finish my career being a defensive coordinator and say, 'Hey, he's Mickey Andrews.'
The core of my career is my teaching and my writing.
