Eric Stonestreet Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Eric Stonestreet:

I tell people all the time that producers, writers, and directors really don't know what they want until it walks into the room - you have to show them what they want. Everyone is rooting for you when you walk into the room. Everyone wants you to be good because it means their day is over!

I got dared to audition for a play by my best friend Paul. He got cast in 'Hamlet,' and I got cast in 'Prelude to a Kiss,' and that changed everything.

My dad had a retail business in Leavenworth, Kansas, and there's a whole bunch of prisons there, so it was a backdrop of my childhood, these ominous prisons sitting off the road.

Eric Stonestreet

I'm a regular dude from Kansas who grew up with pigs and cows.

Quickly you learn it's way better to have fans talking and caring about you than not.

I don't think guys inherently don't want to clean. I think the roles are most definitely changing, but I think in a good relationship, it's never been defined as 'a lady does this and a guy does this.' I think, in most working, healthy relationships, everybody does a little bit of everything.

Eric Stonestreet

No, I'm not gay.

People don't realize how long hours are when you're shooting a movie.

Don't we all think picky eaters are a pain in the rear end? The good thing about the holidays is that it's a buffet-style thing, so you can pick what you want. It's about filling your belly, not theirs.

Bringing up a child in a loving relationship is the most important thing.

Because makeup happens in my life as an actor, face wash is a key. I use La Mer cleansing gel every morning, every night, sometimes three times a day. Also, I use Bobbi Brown's Hydrating Face Tonic that you put on after you wash your face. It just rejuvenates your face. It takes away that morning face.

I love cheeseburgers, really good Italian food, and really good Mexican food. I look the way I look because I've practiced a lot.

Most people don't think of actors and people like us that are performers and out in the world as introverts, but I like to know I can trust someone first.

Eric Stonestreet

I'm always open to meeting people, but I would be lying if I didn't say that my trust issues have changed because of 'Modern Family.'

I've never lived in New York. I've never done a play off or on Broadway, so I think that's in my future. Have that experience - get a little apartment in the city and grow a beard and walk around with earbuds in my ears, and a stocking cap and a big giant scarf.

I probably became an actor because of my vivid imagination, and doing voice-over really sort of takes me back to that.

Eric Stonestreet

I'm a good boy! I do what I'm told; I'm on time. I'm always where I'm supposed to be when I'm supposed to be there. I don't mess around with other people's time and schedule. And I eat my vegetables. And my meats. And my carbs. And my dairy.

I never thought I would be somewhat of a gay icon.

Eric Stonestreet

Growing up, one of my cousins was an out gay man.

On an animated television series, you pretty much read the script as written. Whereas on an animated feature, you'll sometimes record the same scene multiple times over the course of a year as the filmmakers continue to tweak that part of the movie.

I tell people all the time that producers, writers, and directors really don't know what they want until it walks into the room - you have to show them what they want. Everyone is rooting for you when you walk into the room. Everyone wants you to be good because it means their day is over!

All I ever wanted to do was get a great job on a TV show. When I read 'Modern Family' and started looking at what was available - I obviously couldn't play Gloria; I couldn't play Claire. When I saw the character of Cam, I was like, 'I have to have a shot at this,' because I thought it was a character that would be really fun to play.

Eric Stonestreet

I like to be at a party and be a quiet observer, be in conversation. I wouldn't say I was a class clown growing up, but I would definitely sit back in class and take snipes at the teacher.

Eric Stonestreet

The most important thing for me as an actor playing a character is to make you laugh. That's my No. 1 goal.
