- (on his first TV role, a guest spot in Highway to Heaven) Giovanni Ribisi: I played a cancer patient and it was kind of weird, because I was nine years old. I was forming an identity. I had to shave my head and there was part of me that thought it was kind of cool, but at the same time, there were people asking, "Are you OK?"
