A city like New York has clashing cultures and clashing ideas and big ideas, but these sorts of things weren't being thrown in the air and bandied about where I came from.

All aspects of life that I look around, I'm very thankful to be standing where I am.

Quotation of 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.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

But you just don't turn your back on Arthur Miller and an opportunity like this. It's going to be painful - a huge challenge for me.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

Crime is one of the leads of the show. If there's ever anything that deals with a character's personal life, you don't have to worry about it getting too crazy. People don't have to worry about character arcs. Each episode is a self-contained unit.

How that works is our first season was the year we had a threatened writers' strike, so what we did was that instead of doing 22 episodes, we did 30. We put 10 in the bank.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

I didn't get into acting to be a public service announcer or an advocate and yet, by virtue of this show and how we handle the subject matter that we've been given, that's kind of how it's evolved in certain ways.

I don't walk around with a halo above my head or any kind of sainthood. But there is a power - a beautiful, a wonderful byproduct.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

I entered it already with a jaded eye towards the world. I do look at the news and all of that sort of stuff - - always keeping my eyes open for stories.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni
|
I like intellectual journeys.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni
|
I think Chris Rock at the Oscars was a great example. I thought that was intellectually hilarious. The Gap starts a war with Banana Republic... That to me was funny.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni
|
I think I'm a little more liberal, and I don't have as many children. I'm also not as pressurized as Stabler is.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni
|
I think we present extreme aspects of human behavior and hopefully get at times, messages across or bring issues to the table or as we so often say, shed light into the dark crevices of human nature.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

I'd have to say Bali's my favorite place that I've visited.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

I'm just an actor, but if the extra part of it is that I'm helping people or people are being helped by the virtue of what we're doing, then that's just a really nice added extra.

I've written a couple screenplays and half-finished plays.

In my own defense, I wrote a one-man show, and that to me was more where I fit.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

It still took over a year after we met her, because we failed to conceive on a couple of attempts. She hung in there for us. I was in the hospital for the births and it was the most amazing experience. Having kids has shown me that there is something more important in life than acting.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

It's always been kind of weird to me because when you give someone an autograph,you're looking down at a piece of paper and once you sign it the person moves on.

Mariska has her own foundation. She helps with survivors of sexual abuse - they go swimming with wild dolphins.

There was a friend of ours who worked with a girl who had said she would consider being a surrogate. We met her and right away she was awesome. We were looking for someone who could take care of themselves and it was pretty clear she could.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni
|
We went online to surrogacy agencies. We interviewed lots of people - and I have to say, with all due respect, some of them were freaks. I was very leery of the process the whole way through.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni
|
We're real fortunate to have such a unique cast.
Quotation of Christopher Meloni

When it's mid-February, and it's bitterly cold outside, I am really glad that I'm not working in construction anymore.
