Quotes
Zahn
Actor
“It’s a great character. I was really worried at first … But it works. It all works. And it doesn’t waste its time explaining too much, which I love. Because we get right into it and you go like, ‘OK, I believe all that. For some reason I believe that.’ And it’s because it’s acted well. And Glen is remarkable in this show. I think I am blown away. Talk about a big swing. He stepped up into the batter’s box and he just swung for the fences. … Home run. Grand slam.”

“That park where I run is my sanctuary. My back is killing me, but I just have to do it. I just get to reach that point where you’re like, ‘Oh, remember the old days?’ Like, ‘Oh, I’m going to a wedding in two weeks. I’m going to lose 10 pounds,’ and you could do it. Now. It’s like, ‘Oh f*ck, man,’”
