There was a little sidebar article on Terry in the L.A. Times today. I
Didn't see it online, so thought I'd share.:

O'QUINN IS TICKLED PINK BY HIS VICTORY
Why, you ask, did Terry O'Quinn choose a bright pink shirt to go with
his black suit on the night he won the television industry's most
notable award?
"Because it's not white," the soft-spoken actor said backstage, still
visibly affected by the adulation. "They say it takes a brave man to
wear hot pink."
As for keeping his sanity, he credits "the hovering specter of poverty
and my wife. You can't live with the illusion it's going to last
forever. You're on a good run, you hope it's going to last."
Nominated twice, the "Lost" actor collected his first Emmy. O'Quinn, a
fan favorite from the time viewers saw his paralyzed character walk
after the plane crash, said that just before his win was announced he
had thought to himself, "As soon as this award is done, I get to go to
the bathroom."
Wrong!
