I'm not on Twitter. I'm not on Facebook. I'm not on Instagram.

Don't let the world define you. In the world of acting, and I think in any profession, really, people are really eager to put you in a box and categorize you as one particular thing.

I remember telling my mom, 'Mom, I'm gay, but I'm not going to march in a parade or anything.' That's what I was telling my parents and all my friends and everything. I'm gay, but I'm not going to be on a float or something. Cut to five years later, and I was the grand marshal of the gay pride parade.

Make sure that you always follow your heart and your gut, and let yourself be who you want to be, and who you know you are. And don't let anyone steal your joy.

I feel like loyalty is such a rare quality in this world, particularly the entertainment world.

I never look at myself online, and I don't read gossip Web sites.

The idea of faking empathy to take a step forward to understanding - it's a really powerful idea.

I was playing this character, Melchior Gabor, who was a rebel and who was a person who didn't let the world define him, and who stood up to authority and was this kind of revolutionary... And when I left 'Spring Awakening,' I came out of that experience feeling like... I had cultivated this side of my personality that hadn't existed before.

There's kind of a gift in being gay because, if you come out, you're forced to express yourself.

'Looking' is more than just a television show. It's contributing to the cultural conversation, and for me, those are the most exciting projects to be a part of.

People create from different places. Some love to create from a tortured place, some from a joyful place. And when I feel like I'm a 5-year-old kid in my backyard playing pretend, that's when I'm happiest.

I got cast for 'Spring Awakening' when I was 20. Every dream I had came true in that moment.

I don't hate dating people, but I'm not on social media or anything.

Maybe someday I'll have a job where it haunts me or it's hard to move on.

I did 'How to Succeed in Business... ,' 'Kiss Me Kate,' 'Godspell,' and 'You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown' in high school, all of which were fun.

I feel like certainly there are people expecting 'Looking' to be representative of everyone that's gay, the entire gay community. And it's a dangerous expectation to come in watching the show expecting that. Expecting that out of any show.

The hardest I've ever laughed was with Lea Michele.
