“I’m a very outgoing person so I like girls who are not afraid to be themselves. I’m not a shy person.I like conversations and I’m a really big sucker for personality.”

In the back of my mind, I can never forget this could be gone tomorrow – and at this point I think the odds are against me…

I don’t understand how some people would want fame so bad that they’d go out and get negative attention to earn it.

I think if a girl is easy to talk to then that’s the first thing I look for.

The one you actually get to do when you’re filming, and then the one you wish you would have done, afterward.

Sometimes you grow out of love.

There’s no point in being scared of just trying.

Certain things just happen and it’s undeniable, you just go that way. But I don’t have a specific path I’m following, I’m just playing it by ear.

Whether it’s going out and auditioning for the play or trying out for the basketball team, you have to explore your boundaries and see where you really want to go and the only way you can do that is to break out of your shell.

I think the most important thing is to establish myself as an actor. As much as it’s a performing art, I’m not really a performer.

I think going through ‘Hairspray’ and other projects helped me learn about the business and life in general.

You gotta watch out for the moms.

Working out is my biggest hobby. It’s my Zen hour. I just zone out.

She was really spontaneous and fun and loved to make us sing and dance and paint. She was the coolest person in the world.

You see, Batman is a billionaire and there’s nothing really cool about a billionaire saving the world. But Spider-Man is Peter Parker, a conflicted character who puts on a suit and saves the world. I love that.

Personally, I was never the cool kid. I was always sort of a bookworm.

I wouldn’t change anything for the world, although the fame part of this [entertainment] industry is tough to handle at times.

I’m kind of ADD in that sense where if I start liking something, I’ll just learn it to the absolute max.

I like the way hip-hop is now. It’s grown up enough so that it can get involved with politics if it feels like it.

As you go on you realize “Okay I know how to get laughs but am I saying things I want to say? Am I writing jokes that I like?” You get to a point that is that so you move on.

Think like a prophet, serve like a priest, and plan like a king.

It is always good to know, if only in passing, charming human beings. It refreshes one like flowers and woods and clear brooks.

I dont like the idea of dragging you into something that could get messy fast. If you need one more reason, i love you. This is uncharted territory for me, but I need to know that at the end of the night, i have you to come home to.

It wasn’t a bit of good fighting grown-ups. They could do exactly as they liked.

And just like that, i shut off the switch to my brain.
