Ryan Kwanten Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Ryan Kwanten:

Sleep has never been a priority in my life.

My mum is about five foot with her hair done. Without it she's about four foot 10.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm definitely an elbow-room guy.

Ryan Kwanten

Whether I fall on my feet or fall on my arse, I dunno. You've got to take those risks.

Ryan Kwanten

I've always been relatively reserved with my social encounters.

Ryan Kwanten

I don't necessarily find superheroes in general, for me, that appealing. I'd much prefer to play, if I was to be cast in a superhero film, I'd prefer to play the villain because there's a reason, there's a motive behind their madness.

Ryan Kwanten

I really do feel like Los Angeles is my home now and, as cliche as this sounds, I felt like I found myself here and I really know who I am now. There was a long period like I was drifting or floating through life, and now I feel like I have a definitive target - and future.

Ryan Kwanten

One of my favorite actors is Paul Newman. He could tell so much with a single look, whereas some actors would need an entire five page monologue to give off the feeling of what he could say with just a single look.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm very much a masochist at heart.

Ryan Kwanten

I used to get a sort of sociophobia, and I still get it sometimes these days when I'm in a confined space with too many people. It's not like I freak out or anything, it's just that I'm far more comfortable in my own company sometimes than being surrounded by one thousand strangers.

Ryan Kwanten

As actors, we deal with rejection so much more than any other business. So I don't care how much of a genius you are, if you don't have the propensity to be able to get back up every time you get knocked down, then you're not going to survive.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm very rarely in the gym. My workouts are predominantly outside, in nature.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm drawn to a good story, really, as I hope most people are. For me, it's the story that's going to stay with you eventually, not necessarily the genre. I go to watch a film because of the story, not because it was a Western or a comedy.

Ryan Kwanten

Even on a $100 million film, people will complain that they haven't got enough money and enough time, so that's always going to be an element in filmmaking.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm not the kind of guy that inspires madness in people.

Ryan Kwanten

I work very, very hard, so when I do get the chance to go out socially, it's a relatively big night. I also have hobbies on the side, and quite often, one runs into the other.

Ryan Kwanten

I've been known to turn up drunk at triathlons and do very well. I'm more of a heat-of-the-moment type of guy. A friend will tell me about something coming up, maybe that weekend, and usually not an abundance of thought goes into my doing it.

Ryan Kwanten

That's something lacking in a lot of modern-day families - just talking. It's almost a lost art form.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm not one of those actors who gets physically fit for a role and then loses it all again.

Ryan Kwanten

I love acting, so it's easy when you have a passion for it. I've always found the harder you work, the luckier you get.

Ryan Kwanten

I pride myself on breaking any box that anyone wants to put me in.

Ryan Kwanten

My life is very much consumed with work.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm fortunate enough with the surfing to be very much at home at the water - my pulse and heart rate are slower in the water than they are on land.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm not a big fan of the gym, I do lots of outdoor aerobics - yoga, swimming, running - but I kinda hate talking about it. We have a term in Australia, it makes you sound like a wanker.

Ryan Kwanten

Everyone is being told by society to talk this way, to dress that way, to be this person or to be that person, and it's so important to just maintain a sense of self.

Ryan Kwanten

Money has never been a huge inspiration for me.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm not one of those actors who asks for too many favours. So when I do, people tend to listen.

Ryan Kwanten

Fortunately, now I've got myself in a position where things are about story and not money. In my earlier career, it was more about getting my foot in the door and to get enough money to live, to be perfectly honest.

Ryan Kwanten

I never want to be that guy at a dinner table saying, 'I wish I could have dessert.' I actually went through a stage when I would order dessert first.

Ryan Kwanten

In order to be able to give a girlfriend the amount of time she deserves, you would need time, and I just can't give her that. So, rather than being selfish or stupid enough to go into a relationship, it's just been easier to be single.

Ryan Kwanten

I moved to L.A., and people said that I would never find work, that I would never find good friends, and I feel like I was fortunate enough to find the work, but it wouldn't mean anything unless I had a group of people who could appreciate it.

Ryan Kwanten

The fact that 'True Blood' affects people in this way is incredible to me - the fact we have to go to such great lengths to hide storylines just proves the cache our show has.

Ryan Kwanten

I'm somewhat of a masochist at heart. I like to sweat. I come from a very competitive sporting background - my dad was a world-champion surfer - so it's always been a part of my DNA. I do a lot of soft-sand running, hiking, yoga, and boxing, and I compete in triathlons.

Ryan Kwanten

Sleep has never been a priority in my life.

Ryan Kwanten

I make about two movies a year outside the 'True Blood' schedule. I work on a great show six months a year, then outside that I get to satisfy whatever creative urges I have. It's a great position, especially for a single guy like me.

Ryan Kwanten

I don't know if my sense of humor goes over Americans' heads.

Ryan Kwanten

There's a certain addiction to sweat, for sure. I'm not the same person without it. If I don't get my hour of exercise in every day, then I'm not the person that I want to be.
