Quotes
- "It's great to be on a show like ER in your 20s. But when you are in your 30s and trying to be present and have a family, it's really difficult. I knew full well after ER there might be a few fallow years in which I would fade from memory and then would have to reinvent myself as an actor in a different way. I've been working with really good directors, watching really strong actors work and taking chances where I normally wouldn't have taken them."—Noah WyleNY Post: Welcome Back, Carter (February 15, 2009)
