“I grew up on movie sets, getting to see storytelling happen up close.”

I think you just learn a lot of stuff in general about all the stuff he [Edward Snowden] released. I think there’s probably a lot that we don’t know. That’s what is really interesting.

I’m a fan of horror movies that have really good stories.

I definitely have a piece of tape over my computer at home.

I think some of the most interesting stuff was seeing how the Dark Web works and seeing how easy it is for hackers to break into your computer or your bank account or your private information.

I don’t want to talk about the vampire schedule. That’s just gonna upset me.

Growing up in Hawaii, the ocean is where I’m most at home. When I’m away from it and landlocked I long for the ocean. There’s something about it, I’m at peace with it.

Romantic dramas? I love The Notebook. Titanic was great. Classic.

Really I’m a fan of any movie, whether it’s suspense, action, or comedy, anything that has a good story.

I normally go-to whiskey on the rocks. Or a beer. Or with dinner, a glass of white wine.

I couldn’t say a specific thing, but the media is not really held to high standards anymore.

If I’m gonna play a character in a movie or if I want to be the lead of a film, you wanna carry the guy, you wanna get the girl, you wanna save the day or the world.

My dad is really old school: Whatever you do, just be the best at it. He didn’t really care if I was a plumber or a roofer. It didn’t matter what I did. He said, Go out and find out what you like to do, and be the best at it.

I just do what Clint Eastwood does: Keep moving forward. You can’t look back or think about that kind of stuff too much. You just keep making movies; hopefully you make some good ones.

Be the leads of big films that are entertaining and maybe then cross over to stuff that moves people and has a little bit more texture to it.

I’m just looking to be in the best movies possible and do the best work possible and try to become a better actor and make better movies.

For movies like The Longest Ride, I got to hang out with cowboys at rodeos and learned how to ride a bull, essentially.

I don’t think you can be too ashamed of anything as long as you were being yourself. I think why people feel, um, so entitled over me is that they’ve watched me grow up. But that’s a blessing and a curse.

Everyone is constantly transitioning.

I’ve had so many insecurities, and am still getting over a lot.

The cultivation of Love is the greatest need today.

Ever since the Great Depression, we know that one of the key ways in which the US economy has stimulated growth is by manufacturing weapons and exporting war to other countries.

Growing up is important, and I’ve got to do that gracefully, but also keep myself at a good pace.

I never had a lot of friends growing up so having this insane amount of love and support really means a lot to me.

If we’re so smart and so much better than all the animals, and man rules the world, why can’t we just change all the time from, like, a caterpillar to a butterfly?
