Quotes
I don't know what you're going through life doing if you're not really trying to collect some really great memories.
I don't know if I'm very complicated at all. I wish I was. I wish I was one of these deep, intricate people. But I just love having fun really.
I've always had way too much energy so I'm always looking for new things to do to channel that energy.
In all the movies I'm in love with someone in my head. There's always love in a film somewhere. It doesn't matter even if it's an action movie.
But I'm not a tough guy or a street fighter for real. I'm just an actor.
Girls were always my biggest distraction in school.
I would love to sing. I would love to do a musical, but I wouldn't say that that singing is my strong suit.
I grew up in Florida, where if you weren't comfortable dancing, you weren't going to get any girls.
