3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni I rarely see one of the ‘summer blockbuster’ movies. I’d like to see a stronger focus on smaller, smarter movies.
3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni I’m always learning from experiences because each one is different and there are different players involved in the project at the time with their own way of doing things.
3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni Hate is a draining bottomless pit from whence nothing good or of any value can come. Try to eat a balanced diet. Guys only want one thing.
3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni My wife has brought great beauty into my life. And my daughter has brought me nothing but joy. Those qualities were greatly lacking.
3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni I had great faith in Irish actors, that they’d be hip to the whole theatre thing, and they are. I had no illusions of coming over here as some kind of big shot. It’s been a learning experience for me too.

3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni But when you’re a working actor – and that’s what you keep saying in your head, how blessed you are to have a job – and you are working with heavyweights, working with the best guys in TV, it’s pretty cool. Exhausting, but cool.

3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni Look, I hate to sound like Pollyanna, but I literally can’t wait to get to work in the morning. I’ve got steady jobs, I’ve got my health, and I’m here in the greatest city in the world. I’d be a pig not to be grateful.
3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni It is a weird feeling to have people go, ‘Hey Chris’ like they know me. But, number one, 99 percent of my experiences have been really cool. People couldn’t be nicer and more positive.
3 December 2020 Christopher Meloni De Niro was a hero of mine. And Sean Penn. But I’ve realized I can’t operate at that level of intensity. That’s okay for movies. On TV, when you live with horror day in and day out, you have to protect yourself.
