I was very introverted. I had glasses and was kind of weird. A lot of actors are pretty weird people.
The idea that somebody else is going to swoop down and play the fairy godmother role is pretty unlikely, so why not take care of yourself?
The version of me you see on TV now and in my feature films is a pretty happy guy, isn't he?
I don't care how many championships you've won or how many records you've broken - if you've had a hand in pushing forward not only a game but women in sport's movement, then I think that's pretty darn good.
I'm not really into gothic music, it's not really my type of scene but each to their own. I listen to pretty much anything.
To keep the record straight, it wasn't always John and Yoko. We've all accused one another of various business things; we tend to be pretty paranoid by now, as you can imagine. There's a lot of money involved.
In the early days, I just got lucky. I would audition for everything and just happen to land in something pretty respectable, like 'Freaks and Geeks,' my first job, which was a complete fluke.
It's good to have it over with. I worked on it a long time, and I didn't know what people were going to think of it. Would people like it? Would they buy it? So far it's been doing pretty well.
I love playing Rick Ross' 'Port of Miami' album. Jeezy's 'Thug Motivation 101' is a classic in my opinion, and I still listen to that album to this day. I'm a big fan of OutKast, so pretty much any album they put out is great in my opinion, but I find myself listening to 'Aquemini' a lot. Anything Kendrick Lamar does is great.
I try out all the latest beauty products and participate in all the shows. It's pretty magical.
Humans are pretty crafty but will fold quickly in severe cold.
The radio's pretty much always on, and I also listen to some American podcasts, such as for 'National Public Radio' and 'Newsweek'.
For 'Spartacus,' we've committed 100 percent of our production time to creating great scenes. So all the training I do is on my own time. And that's pretty limited.
I think I'm probably quite geeky in a lot of ways. I'm pretty into books, kind of obsessive about that.
I was a pretty good imitator of Roy Acuff, but then I found out they already had a Roy Acuff, so I started singin' like myself.
So I went out and bought myself a copy of the Writer and Artist Yearbook, bought lots of magazines and got on the phone and talked to editors about ideas for stories. Pretty soon I found myself hired to do interviews and articles and went off and did them.
People tend to not forgo purchasing a cellphone. In many places in the world, the first time they get on the Internet is through a cellphone. Pretty significant economic push, particularly in the emerging market.
It is pretty obvious that the debasement of the human mind caused by a constant flow of fraudulent advertising is no trivial thing. There is more than one way to conquer a country.
Marcel Desailly was pretty hard when I played against him in a Milan derby.
I do think that a school day that matches the work day makes a lot of difference for working families, but the big driver of this effort is education. Period. We have a lot of students not gaining the skills they need, and it is pretty clear that school does not offer enough time to get that job done.
Writing 'Deadpool' can be a lot of fun. When I first started working with the character, I wasn't sure I'd like him. I quickly realized, though, that a writer can do pretty much anything with him - comedic stories, serious stories, completely nonsensical stories.
There's no way for me to know, but my best guess, as it must be for everyone, is that other people are pretty much like me.
I have a friend of mine who does me on his answering machine, and when I call him, I answer. It's pretty strange.
I like to keep my private stuff pretty vague.
My wife being a trainer helps, because when I'm at home, everything we keep at the house is pretty healthy.
As I've been acting since I was young it's taught me to give a good speech, and, though I say so myself, I did it pretty well.
I have good spacial awareness, and I'm pretty comfortable with a sword.
Rock fans are pretty fickle, too, you know.
You acquire certain tastes. And if your taste happens to coincide with the majority of people, then you're in pretty good shape. But you're not always right. There were times when I stubbed my toe, and some will end up being on my tombstone - like 'Supertrain.'
Abroad, they have covered pretty much all subjects, explored every possibility, every twist. So similarities between ideas you have and those filmed abroad are quite possible.
I'm a pretty big P.J. Harvey record fan and you can really hear New York in his record.
I think, before 'Watchmen,' I was the guy from 'Grey's Anatomy' who's a pretty good guy, a pretty charming sweet guy, and so as an actor, I really wanted to do something as far from that as I could.
No actor wants to choose - they just want all of the options available to them all the time; we tend to be pretty greedy.
I didn't like the idea of being foolish, but I learned pretty soon that it was essential to fail and be foolish.
I delivered Chinese food on Long island, which is pretty depressing. I lived with my parents and did that for six months. I got a job a few towns over from mine so I wouldn't have to see people from my high school.
So, once I've written a song, you know, I'm pretty happy with what the song is on its own terms.
