Some William Petersen's quotes. Goto "William Petersen's quotation" section for more.Sure, I always chose rebels to identify with - I still do - but to me a rebel isn't so much someone who breaks the law as someone who goes against the odds.
Tags: Against, Law, SomeoneBasically, we are a whole world of people desperately trying to figure out what is the dark side of our natures and how much can we explore without becoming something else.
Tags: Dark, Else, TryingGrissom is a character who doesn't really want people poking around in his life. He likes to poke around in his work.
Tags: Character, Life, WorkI had panic attacks during rehearsal. There were times when I really thought I wasn't going to be able to do it.
Tags: Able, Thought, TimesI've never been in this business for the recognition or the awards. I just want to do good work, grab a decent paycheck, and move onto the next job.
Tags: Business, Good, WorkOne of the things I love about theater, one of the reasons I'll never give it up, is that it's fifty percent the audience's responsibility.
Tags: Audience, Give, LoveWhen we get involved in the ratings, then we're doing the network's job. We need to focus on our work.
Tags: Focus, Job, WorkCorporate Hollywood thinks I'm a geek to go back and do theater. They don't understand why I don't want to be a movie star, why I'm not pursuing Mel Gibson's roles.
Tags: Star, Understand, WhyGrissom comes from a place where we know he had a deaf mother, he was raised in a silent household, on some level, had a father who potentially was not around and he learned what he knew by himself in the back yard, with bugs and animals. He's not comfortable being a supervisor and that's his problem.
Tags: Father, Learned, MotherGrissom is pretty asexual. He's not that interested in anything other than work - except for Lady Heather. She's the closest to getting his heart of anyone.
Tags: Heart, Pretty, WorkI didn't want to play a lawyer. I didn't want to play a doctor. I didn't want to play a single dad. I wanted to do something I felt I could learn from, something that would be a challenge and something that would not dry up.
Tags: Challenge, Dad, SingleI think you can find yourself on one of these shows for a long period of time and think that all you'll ever be able to do is that character. Certainly people think of you that way.
Tags: Character, Time, YourselfI want to live and work in Chicago for the rest of my life. You know when you were growing up and you wanted to become president? What I want now is to be mayor of this damned town in ten years.
Tags: Become, Life, WorkI was horrible at science and math. I couldn't pass a test to save my life! I'm surprised that it didn't take me until I was 20 to graduate. That's why my role is so cool - Grissom is the complete opposite of me.
Tags: Cool, Life, ScienceI won't miss Grissom. It was a complete life for me that's reached its end, and it's reached it in the right way, I think. So I won't miss Grissom. And I hope that the audience won't miss him either.
Tags: End, Hope, LifeI've been telling anybody who would listen that I wanted to do a series for the last 10 years. But I wouldn't do it if I was just another cop pushing bad guys up against the wall.
Tags: Another, Bad, WantedIf I could change on thing about myself, I would: Have better knees. Mine are shot because of injuries. You're only as good as your legs, whether you're an athlete or an actor.
Tags: Change, Good, WhetherIf I stayed a football player, my career would have been over 20 years ago. As it is, my knees are shot. I found I got the same good feeling in acting that I had in sports, but I found I could have a more profound impact on people.
