- Benito: The fun part about doing voiceovers and all that stuff is that you're not yourself; you're some other looking thing and sounding thing and whatever else.

- Benito: (about The Shield) This journey has not been unlike reading a really great book where you get into some really great characters and you want to keep going from chapter to chapter to see where they go. But the story's done, and if we kept going, it wouldn't have the impact, the same resonance.
