The people who are afraid of me, I wonder why, if they have a reason for it. People generally just express their enthusiasm about the show, the character. They want to make sure it's coming back. That's always really encouraging. But if there's any nuance beyond that, it's usually that they express a sense of maybe guilt over their affection for the character or that it does create in them a sense of 'Oh boy, I find myself identifying with your character and that makes me feel kind of funny. But I really like him.' And I think that's great. That's what the show aspires to do.

I have my opinions about whether or not Dexter is human. I think he is. I think a lot of his journey over the course of the second season will be negotiating his growing awareness of that fact with the fact that his compulsion remains and how to reconcile those things.

I think that's a part of my job, playing the character in spite of his claims of having a closed heart, to open my heart to him. The more I learn about Dexter as he learns about himself the more affection that I have for him, the more respect that I have for him too. We all have our shadow. His is about as formidable a shadow as you can imagine, but he's taking this unique responsibility for it. I admire him for that.

I didn't have enough trepidation about playing a gay funeral director not to play it. I didn't have enough trepidation about playing a serial killer not to take the challenge. If people are inclined to associate me with a character I'm playing, I suppose that's a good thing. It's better than like, 'Well, clearly you're not that guy.

My mother certainly grew up in an world where homos..uality, I think, was equated with weakness. I don't think she feels that way now. But I remember a time when I was doing a community theater production in Raleigh and I went to lunch with my mom and a friend who was a doctor, I believe. Afterward my mom communicated to me that the doctor sort of warned her, 'The theater is a place where there are a lot of homos..uals.' Thankfully, for whatever reason, when I heard that, I thought, That's fu..ed-up. But what kind of number would that have done on me if I were gay?

Had every intention of keeping it quiet, but because the award shows were imminent, I figured Id make a statement. It was nice to be able to make a statement with my treatment that I was able to assure people that I was really on the road to recovery.

I'm kind of a tech-tard. I do have an iPod, a laptop, a Mac. Look at this cell phone. I almost have it as a source of pride. It's a stretch. I'm not much of a wizard.

I do think I grew up in an environment in which, in subtle ways, enthusiasm was not necessarily encouraged. There is something wonderful about celebrating who you are, especially if it follows a period where you get everything but that.

The fact that Ive been called upon to play these characters is probably not a complete coincidence. I have my own repressed people in my life that Ive drawn on, and had my own tendency toward repression. Maybe it has to do with not knowing quite what to do with the storm of feelings that accompanied my fathers death. Maybe its a learned behavior.

I think Ive been preoccupied since I was 11, and my father died, with the idea of the age 39: Would I live that long? What would that be like?. To discover that I had the Hodgkins was alarming, but at the same time I felt kind of bemused, like: Wow. Huh. How interesting.

I think Dexter is a man whoa part of himself is very much frozen, or arrested in a place that is pre-memory, pre-conscious, pre-verbal. Something very traumatic happened to him, he doesn't know what that is. And I think on some level he wants to know. He denies his humanity, he describes himself as someone who is without feeling, and yet I think that he maybe suspects - in a way that maybe isn't even conscious yet when we first meet him - that he is in fact a human being. Dexter's a unique killer in that his father saw his dark impulses, shined a light on them, and told Dexter that he saw them, he accepted them, that Dexter is good and that he is worthy of love. And I think that's what enables him to focus his energies in this unique way.

The show has momentum, it's captured people's imagination...I won't deny that it's a thrill to be recognized in this way. I'll bring as many people as I can, based on how many tickets they give me.

In a strange way, playing David during the first season required me to get in touch with my homophobia. He had such internalized loathing for who he was. I certainly have moved forward in my life, in my own relationship to my self-loathing, by having played David.

Ultimately, I'm a mess. I don't mean I'm a mess, like, emotionally...I mean, I think probably everybody's a mess. David's a mess. But. I'm talking about ... I'm messy.

Yes, I mean, There's nothing like it. There is an added sense of pressure because of that, but there's also nothing like the thrill you get being in the same space with that audience right there and then. And when you do it, it's over.
