“I grew up with artists.”

I’m not going to normally get hired to play those emotional things, and I’m capable of it. I was raised by a single mother in Iowa – I’m just trapped in a big, dumb body.

I can’t wait until I get to play the fat guy in the office.

My wife’s Lisa Bonet. I’m a very lucky man.

There’s a bunch of stuff I want to learn. Instead of waiting around on set all day, I’d rather be learning something cool.

I don’t think a lot of people are calling me to play doctors and lawyers, which is fine with me. I can put a suit on, but I don’t really like to.

If you’re in a small town somewhere and you can go and visit Paris, you can go to the top of Everest, that’s just cool. It’s worth it because you become more educated in something.

You get a lot of respect for ‘Game of Thrones,’ and it was a lot of fun to play, but it didn’t help my career a lot because Khal Drago doesn’t even speak English.

I get up at 5 A.M., and I train hard. I’ve got two young children, so I have to get up early. But I like it.

There’s a lot of things I would definitely go to bat for in Hawaii. I’ve been all over that stuff. If someone told me to be quiet about that because of my profession, no. That’s my people.

I grew up rock climbing.

I’ve been fascinated with Maori culture since I was a kid.

I would love to do comedy.

I’m not really tough.

My mum raised me on ‘On the Waterfront,’ ‘Gone with the Wind’ and ‘Rear Window.’

I’m not a big fan of just doing weights. Anything more physical is infinitely better.

I’m a walking contradiction.

I grew up in Chicago, and I understand what Michael Jordan symbolizes.

I have just made stories to please myself, because I never grew up.

I grew up aware of all the people I depended on and who depended on me.

I no longer protect myself from the world I grew up in. Rather, today I try to protect the feelings I have for that world, the emotional space where my desire to write first took hold, and still grows.

I can definitely hold my hands up and say wrestling wasn’t something that I grew up watching.

I grew up in Marcy Projects in Brooklyn, and my mom and pop had an extensive record collection, so Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder and all of those sounds and souls of Motown filled the house.

I love PBS! I grew up on it. If I had to say which channels were good, I’d say, you got your PBS, your History Channel, your Discovery.

I grew up in a very loud and dramatic household, and we loved being in the spotlight.
