- Nicholas: (The best advice he was ever given) The best piece of advice I've been given is to be honest. Be honest in your work and in everything you do.

- Nicholas: (on his X-files' character Krycek's appearance) As cold-hearted as he appears to be. But I do think that he'll do whatever it takes to stay alive and to get done what he has to do.

- Nicholas: (on being suspended by a cable from the top of a 16-story building for the episode Tunguska) When I got there, they had a platform for me to stand on. They were going to shoot me down to the knees, so it would look like I was hanging there, but you wouldn't be able to see my feet. I said, You should be able to see my feet there so people know I'm really hanging.
