Everyone always talks about the speed of New York, and I still walk slow around New York, and everyone is walking faster than me all the time, and I notice it every time we go...

I had a bad stutter when I was really young. I couldn’t get a sentence out. Like, ‘D-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-ad.’ And that turned into a mumble.

My mother taught me how to love. My mom is the most loving person I know.

‘m just going to be a good friend to my kid. One thing I definitely want to change is that whole ‘I don’t want you to make the same mistakes’ mentality. My dad didn’t have...

I’ve always had way too much energy so I’m always looking for new things to do to channel that energy.

I know I will never wear sandals now anywhere. I got in a fight in the back of a grocery store when I was really young, like 14 or something. And I remember my feet...

Truthfully, this is how I approach my workout: I want to be the best athlete I can possibly be. If I can out-perform some of the better athletes then I’m happy. When I look at...

I’m not a comedian. I can play off of people, but I’m not that guy. I don’t want people being like, ‘Yeah, he should have stuck with drama.’ It would not be my choice to...

I was terrified to do ‘G.I. Joe.’ I had no idea how to do one of those movies. I was kind of scared. You know, if one of those doesn’t work, it’s a huge hit...

But I’m not a tough guy or a street fighter for real. I’m just an actor.

That’s something I do, like, all the time. I just do backflips off things.

My dad was a roofer when I was young. I believe he owned his own roofing company in Florida. And then he fell through a roof, broke his back. Permanently. I mean, he’s not paralyzed...

If my Dad doesn’t like you, you will know. My Mom is just too innocent to ever lie. She doesn’t even cuss.

I read so slow. If I have a script, I’m going to read it five times slower than any other actor, but I’ll be able to tell you everything in it. It kills me that...

I’m thankful for weird people out there ’cause they’re some of the most creative people.

There are so many things I want to do. Like, I want to get an artist, a musician, a photographer, and a bunch of dancers that I know and just travel across Africa and just...

I can completely lose myself into just absolutely satisfying things – a really amazing cheeseburger, a pizza, good fries, a beer. I enjoy being comfortable and eating whatever the hell I like. It’s a big...

I lived crazy really young. So now I don’t need to go out and get nuts.

The more you try to look sexy, the lamer it is, so you just have to commit to the comedy.

Soccer was the first sport that my parents put me in, and ultimately, all the parents kind of came over to my mom and were, ‘We think Channing would be better at football…. We love...

I was not good in school. I could never read very fast or very well. I got tested for learning disabilities, for dyslexia. Then I got put on Ritalin and Dexedrine. I took those starting...

I’m a fat kid on the inside. I love food so much, and I fluctuate about 25 to 30 pounds between movies. I feel like I have to do a chess movie that requires very...

I don’t know if I’m very complicated at all. I wish I was. I wish I was one of these deep, intricate people. But I just love having fun really.

I have the flying dream a lot where I’m jumping off a building and just flying around.

I think the superstar thing is completely arbitrary. It’s all about who had a movie that did well one weekend. Then, if you have a movie that doesn’t do well the next weekend, then, all...

No one’s calling me for lawyer roles. I still have a lot to do to prove myself.

‘A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints’ was the first real actor-actor part I did, and I hope I to do more. Action movies are fun, but I’d be happy not to do them if there...

‘The Vow,’ I didn’t know if people were going to want to see it, but we felt good about it. We we’re like, ‘Alright, either way, I liked the movie for what it was,’ and...

The records that I like, they have life and warmth and soul in them. Like the slap back on Scotty Moore’s guitar on ‘Mystery Train.’ You’re not gonna get that in a computer. You’re gonna...

I believe Obama is a lot of fun when he’s not trying to keep our economy together.

Yeah, and I recently had my first Elvis moment. A gang of young girls was jumping all over me. It was kinda scary. And totally flattering.

I’m not pretty. The truth is I didn’t think I could be a model at all. I was looking at some of the guys on the walls at Irene Marie and I thought to myself...

I was in college that first semester, and I was like, ‘Wow, this isn’t who I am. This isn’t what I want to do.’ I was like, ‘Oh God, I’m going to have to go...
