Halfway through Numbers, I got really jaded, and I had these unrealistic expectations about what Numbers could be. I thought it should be Emmy-nominated. I was in my mid-20s, so I was kind of shortsighted and silly.

More quotes by David Krumholtz
Addams Family blew my mind because it was the first time I was in L.A. and Hollywood, and I grew up a huge fan of movies.
David Krumholtz
[10 Things I Hate About You] was the most fun I ever had making a movie. Everyone got along really, really well from day one. It was like summer camp.
David Krumholtz
[the Ghost Team] is an ensemble comedy. It's about people who are searching for meaning in their lives, and they end up doing this stupid thing after they're inspired by one another.
David Krumholtz
I enjoyed working with everyone on the cast [of the Ghost Team]. We knew we were making a pretty weird movie.
David Krumholtz
[Amy Sedaris] is awesome to work with. She's an amazing person. She makes her own line of catnip toys, and she gave me a bunch for my cat. It meant the world to me. She also got me stuff for my daughter, but I was more enamored with what she gave me for my cat.
David Krumholtz
It's really cool to know that you've put something together that isn't for a particular audience. It's so often that a TV show can really only speak to one sect of the population, and this really is something that appeals to a worldwide fan base. People who are into the pursuit of knowledge. Their reaction has meant the world to us.
David Krumholtz
Everyone that works under the Coen brothers , in every department - makeup, hair, production design, wardrobe, so on and so forth, grip, lighting, tech, everything - they're the best. So to be on a set when you're working with the very best in the industry was a real privilege.
David Krumholtz
So many shows out there dumb-down the country. It's so admirable to be part of a show that wants people to think.
David Krumholtz
I came away from that set [ Hail, Caesar !] super inspired, and like I said, it ruined all future endeavors. I'll never have as good an experience as that.
David Krumholtz
[10 Things I Hate About You] is a smart and grounded film about a real, well-rounded girl. I think the only other teen film that came close to getting that right was Can't Hardly Wait.
David Krumholtz
The Josh Brolin character in that movie [Hail, Caesar!], he's given a choice to leave, to do something where he wouldn't have to work as hard. And he'd rather work and deal with the madness of what he's doing because it thrills him, because it gives him meaning.
David Krumholtz
I tried one [lavash], just because, I was like, I should know what it is, once I got the part. And it's all right. It's like if a matzo and a flour tortilla had sex and had a baby. It's a dry flour tortilla.
David Krumholtz
[Numbers] made me feel like a real person instead of a guy who shows up for two days on a movie, does some funny stuff, and then doesn't see anybody until the premiere.
David Krumholtz
That was pretty cool [Life With Mikey]. Michael J. Fox at the time was huge. I was like, Whoa, he's a real bona fide movie star! I was a kid. It was a huge deal. That's kind of it. We shot it in Toronto, and a little bit in New York.
David Krumholtz
I had no idea I was hot. I was just like, Oh, this is normal. You make two movies a year. This is easy. And of course, I have since learned that acting has its periods of unemployment, and ups and downs. The first five years were really good to me.
David Krumholtz
First of all, it was wonderful to have a home. Consistent work when you're a journeyman actor, when you're a character actor, is really hard to come by. When you can get it, you have to cherish every moment of it - cherish the crew, cherish the cast, cherish the stage, cherish everything. Because when it's over, it's really hard to get back.
David Krumholtz
It looks glamorous and wonderful, but it's a job like any other. And I think that's their humility coming through, Joel [Coen] and Ethan's [Coen] humility. I think they really believe they are tradesmen, craftsmen, and they're just pursuing their trade, their craft, and doing the best they can with it.
David Krumholtz
Obviously [Can't Hardly Wait] wasn't in American Pie, which was a movie about some teenage boys.
David Krumholtz
I got scared away from the whole writing and producing thing, because of how really, truly difficult this was.
David Krumholtz
Ultimately, I think the movie's about working as a means of finding meaning in your life. It's about the lesson, the great lesson, of just working, working and being productive.
