JOSHUA JACKSON

Maybe it's due to my west coast liberal upbringing, but, the idea of parallel universes doesn't strike me as being too far out there.

I hate people saying anything stupid. I don't really suffer fools very well at all. When people are acting like idiots, not that I'm not guilty of doing the odd idiotic thing myself from time to time, but when people say stupid things, it stresses me out.

Nobody criticizes the 'Mighty Ducks' trilogy and gets away with it. Nobody!

The anti-elitist values in America, I think, are very destructive to education.

I've had more of an opportunity to work with Katie Holmes, which is incredibly enjoyable. I think she is really one of the best actresses on the market right now. She forces you to bring your best stuff to the table, because if you don't, she just completely overpowers you.

Uma Thurman is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen. She has those wicked eyes - it looks like there is such a brain behind those eyes.

I love Vancouver. I can be with my family, I can reconnect with the guys. It will always be my home.

I'm not really the type to wear my heart on my sleeve. I would let someone know if I liked them, but it takes a while for me to fall in love.

I think Uma Thurman is one of God's creatures, one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

Most people call my style of dress slovenly, I call it extreme casual. If I didn't have a mother and a sister for the times I do have to get dressed, I would be absolutely lost.

I'm of the opinion that life doesn't always tie up neatly at the end of the episode.

For me, the desire exists less to get myself a degree than to just go and have the whole college experience, and throw myself into the brain pool and see if I can swim.

If I only dated actresses, I'd be a very lonely man.

There's a romance and power to live theater.

For me, as an audience member, I'm always most engaged by serialized storytelling, so as an actor, the thing that I take away from it is how much fun it is to perform a serialized story.

We've all had that moment, the first time you're exposed to live theater, and it's shocking in the best possible way. You see something and say to yourself, 'I didn't know this could exist.'

I'm a Vancouver boy, and I grew up outdoors, so any time I can be outside, everything is good.

With 'Dawson's Creek,' I wasn't a fan of '90210,' and that wasn't particularly my genre of show. 'Fringe,' on the other hand, is right up my alley.

Doing a play in New York is ticking off a major, major bucket list thing for me.

When you behave well towards somebody regardless of what you're receiving, you feel better about yourself. So be decent to people.

I have lots of hard-earned knowledge about women through heartbreak - and social faux pas. When I was about 15, thinking I was engaging in light conversation, I asked a woman when she was due. Of course, she wasn't pregnant. I learnt the lesson never to ask again.

The hardest thing to walk away from, over a long-form TV show, is the comradery of the company, both with the crew and the group of actors.

I was briefly in the original version of 'Tombstone,' but I didn't make the final cut because that movie went through a couple of different permutations.

The majority of fathers that I saw when I was growing up in Vancouver didn't take the responsibility to look after their kids, and I was aware that society is geared towards punishing single women.

When you're working on a television series, you only get a very short off-season. The scheduling of TV is relentless.
