More quotes by Channing Tatum
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 in the eighth grade. As soon as they pumped that drug into me, it would focus me right in.
Channing Tatum
I do want to take some time and reinvent and get better and maybe get behind the camera a little more. I do want to direct at some point and start failing really early - start shooting videos and then commercials and then hopefully do some narrative.
Channing Tatum
I can't do the same movies all my life. I'm conscious of that. But it's a trade-off. 'Dear John' allowed me to do movies I've wanted to do. You learn to balance it out. I'm still learning. Only now am I getting to do the kinds of movies that I have wanted to do. So it's a steady climb. You don't jump into a Soderbergh film.

Channing does a very good impersonation of men at female strip joints.
Channing Tatum
No matter if you're a man, woman, cat, hamster, you will get lost in Matt Bomer's eyes. I don't know what they are made of outside of dreams and rainbows and amazingness but it truly doesn't matter. And when he sings. It's like God gave with both hands and then grew a third hand and graced him with more.
Channing Tatum
I've got great genetics from parents, and I'm not moaning that I have such a hard life. Trust me it's worked out so much more in the positive then the negative.
Channing Tatum
I think, even a lot of people that make movies forget is that, in my mind, a movie should work with the sound off. You should be able to watch a movie without the sound and understand what's going on. That's your job, to build a series of chronological images that tell the story.
Channing Tatum
I like vintage stuff. I go through a vintage store and find things that I feel like I fit right into them because of all the years that they've been used.
Channing Tatum
I'm not a fighter. I'm not a tough guy at all. I walk away from fights.
Channing Tatum
If you're with someone you don't exactly trust then you have to watch yourself and that's the hardest thing for an actor not to do, and not listen to yourself as you're talking.
Channing Tatum
I've lived almost, like, four completely different lives. (Stripping) was just one section - one little small section, if that - but it was a very interesting and turbulent but kind of wild ride and I'm not ashamed of it all. I think it's hilarious and I learned a lot about human nature.
Channing Tatum
Playing a character that allows me to play around with some of the feelings I have inside of myself and explore them - and maybe put them to rest a little bit, or at least come to terms with them - feels successful to me. I think it's about believing in what you do.
Channing Tatum
Modeling was successful for me. I didn't have to wait tables or anything like that, so that was nice. And I got to see the entire world.
Channing Tatum
I've always had way too much energy so I'm always looking for new things to do to channel that energy.
Channing Tatum
There is a lot of underground type of fighting going on and some of it is not safe, it's pretty brutal. But it's absolutely fascinating.
Channing Tatum
I think some of the scariest people I've met in my life have been some of the sweetest.
Channing Tatum
There are so many dramatic actors where I would give all of my anything to have their careers, but I don't think I can try to follow anyone.
Channing Tatum
It comes down to the experience of it. The more you fight, the more you know, the more you can use in the ring.
Channing Tatum
I consider myself a decent athlete but when I started to train martial arts like Kung Fu, I realised it had nothing to do with how athletic you are. It's all mental. It's what you know, how you use it and your mental toughness and composure. It's incredible.
Channing Tatum
I think the best thing to try to do is allow your daughter or your son to know that they can come to you for anything. If you can break down that wall so they don't feel embarrassed by telling you things, that's half the battle.
