You go to the hospital your wife’s in labor and you’re doing the thing, and then it’s very disorienting and scary and you beat yourself up and you go through a whole period of ‘woe is me’ and then you realize that this a gift, this child is the light, and if you can nourish that light and just let it shine, you have an opportunity to get closer to what I think is God.
John C. McGinley Quotes
I did feel Dr. Cox, the character that I was auditioning for, was too similar to the head of the hospital. He was too arrogant and mean. I approached him kind of like I had a miniature Max sitting on my shoulder. I pictured Max saying, "This guy has got to give love every once in a while. He has to!" I knew there had to be tiny little windows of redemption.
