Kids need a father around to make them whole. They need their mom.

I was 15 years old in 1972, and yeah, when the 1970s broke, I was out there. Everything was kinda swirling around me - the music, women, cars, the culture.

I get chills when I think that there's a statue of Phil Lynott on a street in Dublin, that people leave flowers by the statue. I love stuff like that.

Until a book starts forming in your head, you always wonder, 'Am I going to be able to do this again?'

I live in a bigger house, but I still live in the neighbourhood I grew up in.

I always overtip. When I go to England, people think I'm stupid.

'The Deuce' takes a look at the remarkable paradigm of capitalism and labor: where money goes and how it's routed; who has power and who doesn't; who is exploited and who's not.

'The Deuce' came about when David Simon and I were put in contact with a guy who, along with his twin brother, owned a couple bars in Times Square.

I am on my bike daily, and most of the locations, warehouses and specific residences from 'The Cut' were found while I was riding.

I've just been very interested in the living side of Washington, rather than the federal side, since I was a kid.
