Josh Hartnett quotes about
character weekend bored
I get bored with the same old film coming out every weekend. It feels like it's the same story all the time, and the same visuals, and the characters' dilemmas are remarkably similar.
running sleep kids
Running around when I was a kid was a really happy time; a time when getting home for dinner or for sleep were my only responsibilities.
couple character journey
We're all on a journey. The average American switches professions four times. I'm lucky to be in a business where I can change the character I am playing every couple of months.
knowing worry paper
If everything is going well in my life then I start to read the papers more and I start to worry about everything I can't deal with. They say wisdom is knowing what you can fix and what you can't change. I'm very unwise.
unique games always-trying
I'm always trying to find something unique or a project that I can do something unique in. When the director has a vision for a piece that I've never heard before, and they can back that up with visuals and they talk a good game, I get really interested in the world that they're trying to create.
brother thinking littles
I'm a lot older than my little brothers and sister, so I think I grew up babysitting them.
straightforward personal-life
I don't like to act in my personal life. I like to be straightforward.
character sides convincing
I always find that I have to be emotionally on my character's side for it to be convincing.
hands tools kind
Fame was initially this kind of blunt tool that was thrust into my hands very young.
flirting thinking work-out
You know, I'm not really any good at working out when people are flirting with me. And I think I'm too flirtatious with people I'm trying not to flirt with! What I am good at is making people feel uncomfortable. I don't want to but it always ends up happening!
hope believe love-is
Hope is the most exciting thing in life, and if you honestly believe that love is out there, it will come. And even if it doesn't come straight away, there is still that chance all through your life that it will.
careers worry littles
I guess I will probably produce a little bit more. For me it's a career, you create as you go along and you can't worry about always being on top.
fun heart broken
I've had my heart broken, and it's not fun. But I'd rather have my heart broken than break someone else's heart.
mistake opportunity play
You learn so much from making mistakes, not even necessarily mistakes that I've made, a lot of the time the films just don't work out because it's a really difficult process. And sometimes there's a certain person underlining process. But I've had an opportunity to work on all different types of films and I have had a lot of opportunities to stretch myself in different ways and now is the time where I get to try and figure out out the roles that I can really play well and play them well.
