Mark Wahlberg quotes about
I've always wanted to do right in life. But the wanting and the doing aren't quite the same thing.
Look, if you're driving down the highway at 120 miles an hour, I'd rather be behind the wheel than in the backseat.
The best part of a great movie is a great villain and I usually have a tendency to root for the bad guy.
I miss being able to wake up when I want and go on stage when I want and pull down my pants when I want.
I've been in enough movies to know that when you're on the set and you start shooting, you're looking at playback and you get a sense of what it's going to be like.
I work out Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday; take Thursday off; then I work out Friday and Saturday. So sometimes I'll eat whatever I want on Thursday, like a big breakfast of pancakes and bacon and eggs and stuff. You can eat a big, hearty breakfast because you're going to burn off most of it during the day anyway.
I love roles where I am required to prepare physically. And it's fun putting on weight and eating.
Most of the humor comes from how outrageous the situations and circumstances are.
You have to take everything I say with a grain of salt.
I love movies that are challenging to me both physically and emotionally and that I have to take a lot of time leading up to it to get into that headspace and live in that headspace throughout the course of the production.
