MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYThere are certain nights you and your image just aren’t in the same bed.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYI’m a football fan, a sports fan, a fan of competition.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYI love Los Angeles, and it’s been very good to me, but if everyone is running around telling the stories, who’s living them?
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYMy life is the road, man. I need to keep moving.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYRomcoms are hard in a lot of ways: they’re built to be buoyant. It’s easy to demean them.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYI don’t dabble and spend much mind or time dealing with, I don’t know, people’s perceptions of me. I truly don’t.

MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYLife is a series of commas, not periods.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYWhen someone bestows something on you, no matter how true it is, when someone says, ‘Sexiest Man Alive,’ I’m honestly going, ‘Thank you. Right on.’ For me, it’s never canceled out anything, it’s never made me go, ‘Does this make me less talented of an actor?’
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYMy last name is originally Irish. I’m not exactly sure whereabouts it’s from, but I’ve got family branches that were traced back there.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYGood ideas are free – or at least they should be.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYI say to the paparazzi, ‘Fellas, take your shot and go.’ It’s just they usually find me on a beach.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYMy lawyer has been a good friend of mine for a long time. He and I continuously have conversations.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYI’m not arrogant enough to look back on my career and criticize my choices. It’s really not my place.
MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEYI don’t know how to work a room. It’s a real skill.
