“Studying cows, pigs and chickens can help an actor develop his character. There are a lot of things I learned from animals. One was that they couldn’t hiss or boo me.”

Trust and belief are two prime considerations. You must not allow yourself to be opinionated.

To my way of thinking, an actor’s course is set even before he’s out of the cradle.

One of these days I might be able to contribute something to the world.

It is the best thing that can happen to an actor. I am one of the youngest to belong. If I can keep this up and nothing interferes with my progress

I also became close to nature, and am now able to appreciate the beauty with which this world is endowed.

How can you measure acting in inches?

I think the one thing this picture shows that’s new is the psychological disproportion of the kids’ demands on the parents.

At times there seems to be a million ideas worth painting. However, there are days when it’s a challenge to pull any idea together.

I want to be a Texan 24 hours a day.

Live fast, die young, leave a good looking corpse.

My purpose in life does not include a hankering to charm society.

If you’re not afraid, if you take everything you are, everything worthwhile in you and direct it at one goal, one ultimate mark, you’ve got to get there.

Being a good actor isn’t easy. Being a man is even harder. I want to be both before I’m done.

I have made great strides in my craft. After months of auditioning, I am very proud to announce that I am a member of the Actors Studio.

Remember: Life is short, break the rules

I’m not going to go through life with one arm tied behind my back.

My family and I reside on a non-working farm, although we have a couple of horses and the usual stuff like pigs, cows, and chickens.

If you want a chicken to be a duck, and a duck to be a chicken, you will suffer.

When I’m out, maybe I’m looking at the fried chicken, but I know I need to order the grilled.

I try to eat a lot of baked foods, fish, chicken, potatoes, stuff like that. Grab me a Muscle Milk. That helps.

It’s not just the end of a chicken leg, it really is – imagine the cartilage of game meat.

My father tried to give me the sex talk once, and he chickened out. He walked into my room and went, ‘Adam – uh, don’t kiss guys.’

In a twilight garden, when a brown nightingale starts singing, what is left to a blonde chicken is to remain silent.

I definitely gravitate towards things like vegetables, chicken, brown rice, but I don’t deprive myself of anything. If I want a Sprinkles cupcake, I’m having a Sprinkles cupcake. But I’m not going to have one every day… you just have to have a sensible outlook on all of it.
