Alec Baldwin as Jack Donaghy in a scene from NBC's "30 Rock."

Alec Baldwin announced in a 5,000-word New York Magazine essay that he's leaving public life.

Here's some advice NBC executive Jack Donaghy of 30 Rock would give Baldwin in this situation:

"We all have ways of coping, I use sex and awesomeness."

"Not thinking is what makes America great."

"Money can't buy happiness, it is happiness."

"Typical liberal media. That's why I get all my news from Dick Cheney's website, dickviews.com."

"No. You are the spider. I am the sun. I dry up all the rain."

"We've stopped making and become a country of consumers. Well, I, for one, am done consuming. And I'm ready to make."

"The Italians have a saying, Lemon. "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer." And though they've never won a war, or mass produced a decent car, in this area, they are correct."
