It's something very few actors really get to experience. When you're a character actor or voiceover guy, it's job to job. You're like a migrant worker, almost. The longevity [of "SpongeBob”] is an unbelievable statistical anomaly. It's like, I didn't buy that many lottery tickets and I won the lottery. It's a totally random, harmonic convergence of people you met and your agent getting you an audition. Actors have so little control over their own lives; it's nice to have something you're not in control of that's actually positive. There was a point when "SpongeBob” was cancelled after the first few seasons and the first movie. We went to a wrap party that I thought was the season wrap party but was the series wrap party. Nobody knew. So I already feel like I dodged a bullet. View quote
Tom Kenny

Anna Faris
I'm constantly thinking about what I'll do next. I never count on music being a career of longevity. I mean, longevity is key, and I hope that it lasts, but you just don't know, because it's not in your hands, you don't make the decision. (Beth Ditto)
I prefer to have longevity. I like as great a variety as possible, hopefully to avoid getting stuck in one kind of character, having to do it over and over again. I seek to challenge myself as an actor - and at the same time support my family. View quote
