“I feel like most of my time is spent trying to not be the asshole I’m sure that I am. Sometimes that shows itself as being polite and hopefully thoughtful and hopefully selfless... There are days when I chew somebody out or I’m short with a friend of mine or I don’t want to take a call… But I hope that I hold myself to a standard of being better than that, because that’s how the world works, that’s how we get things done. I don’t think it’s a big con. I don’t think I’m actually a puppy killer and getting away with pretending to be a nice guy.”“Any actor, for the most part, can’t deny or change the way that other people perceive them. So if I have a tendency towards getting roles that involve being the good guy or a nice guy, that’s not something I can really rail against. But like this season on Girls, I am forever indebted to these writers to create a character that initially seems like a down-the-middle, stand-up guy. And over a period of time, you see some of the cracks in that. I am just going to keep going where the love is, so if people want to hire for me for this, I’m going to keep working this way. I’m not going to go broke over not wanting to be a nice guy.”“I almost feel like Hannah and Fran would have the inverse of what Jake and Lena would have. I almost feel like Hannah would be a Bernie guy, and Fran would be Hillary, if not Ron Paul or writing in some candidate. I almost feel in Fran’s mind, he would be caught between the duty to vote and a feeling of like, well, they are all rigged and bought, so what’s the point?”
