Quotes

add »
Stephen: (on his Christmas tradition) We celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve because my wife’s mom is Swedish and that’s the Swedish way. We also have Christmas Day, so we have two Christmases. We put the stockings up on the hearth, and the kids open the stockings on Christmas morning. (edit)
Stephen: (on knowing that "Days Of Our Lives" characters, Steve and Kayla,are beloved icons in soap genre) I had a hand in the creation of this character because they didn’t have a bible written for Patch, which is usually the case on soaps. I had the luxury of collaborating with the producers to build Patch from the ground up. (edit)
Stephen (on returning to "Days Of Our Lives"): The only odd thing was getting acclimated to wearing the patch again. I had forgotten how weird it was to be walking around and feeling like I exist with half a face. (edit)
Stephen: (on knowing it was the right time to return to "Days Of Our Lives") I think the transition that the show is currently going through made it ripe for us to come back. Everything just fell into place this time. (edit)
Stephen: (on designing his own eye patch) The first time around on Days they had given me the drug-store kind with the elastic band. I wanted something cooler. I found a leather shop on Hollywood Boulevard, gave them a design and said, ‘Please do this in leather’. After that, the costume department duplicated that original when ever I needed another. (edit)
