Vincent D'Onofrio

The search for the truth is not for the faint hearted.

When you are a character actor they trust you will go in and give them a full character and leave.

I found my niche as a character actor, and I've never felt like a movie star or teen idol and never wanted to.

It's like why people read scary books or go see scary movies. Because it creates a distance. They're scared, but they're not going to get hurt.

When I was younger I used to pick things just to face the fear.

Acting is not a mystery. There's nothing that I know that other actors don't know. We all act, we're all actors, we all know the same thing. The only thing that separates us is experience.

At our best, it's a good experience but we do 22 episodes a year, so there are some clunkers.
