The audience knows the truth, the world is simple. It's miserable, solid all the way through. But if you could fool them, even for a second, then you can make them wonder, and then you got to see something really special.

More quotes by Hugh Jackman
If I go to a party I don't feel like I have to be in the centre. But I do find myself quite often being placed in that position. Even when I was younger at school, I would be asked to make a speech. I don't remember putting up my hand and all that often but I'd just find myself there.
Hugh Jackman
When you dance, your body just wants to find its natural weight. I'm naturally a lot more Tommy Tune than I am Wolverine.
Hugh Jackman
I do not think it is logical to try and outsmart the smartest people. Instead, my weapons are irony and paradox. The joy of life is partly in the strange and unexpected. It is in the constant exclamation 'Who would have thought it?'
Hugh Jackman
I've never heard my dad say a bad word about anybody. He always keeps his emotions in check and is a true gentleman. I was taught that losing it was indulgent, a selfish act.
Hugh Jackman
When I come home, my daughter will run to the door and give me a big hug, and everything that's happened that day just melts away.
Hugh Jackman
Doing anything worthwhile takes forever.
Hugh Jackman
I've always felt that if you back down from a fear, the ghost of that fear never goes away. It diminishes people.
Hugh Jackman
My father taught me that losing your temper is a self-indulgent act.
Hugh Jackman
Anyone can be an idealist. Anyone can be a cynic. The hard part lies somewhere in the middle.
Hugh Jackman
I find that kid actors are great reminders of the simplicity of acting. As you get older, you can sometimes complicate things a little more. You can become too aware of, 'Okay, this is the scene emotionally. This is where we need to be. We've got the climax coming up.' You can start to analyze it too much.
Hugh Jackman
As you get older you have more respect and empathy for your parents. Now I have a great relationship with both of them.
Hugh Jackman
I know I'm not known as method. By nature I'm not a brooder. What I continue to use is a mixture of the English school, which is traditionally outside-in, and the more American way of working from the inside out.
Hugh Jackman
Breakfast is my specialty. I admit it's the easiest meal to cook, but I make everything with a twist, like lemon ricotta pancakes or bacon that's baked instead of fried.
Hugh Jackman
I feel so lucky to have both a son and a daughter, because there's a different relationship with each of them.
Hugh Jackman
If you accept the pain, it cannot hurt you.
Hugh Jackman
I just love making a fool out of myself. I made my living as a clown at kids' parties for about three years.
Hugh Jackman
My father was an army champion boxer... in the British army. And so he loved boxing and talked it up as a sport. But then when my brother and I were beating the crap out of each other, he was always trying to tone it down. But I am a fan of boxing.
Hugh Jackman
Singing is incredibly physical.
Hugh Jackman
The Wolverine was fired from his job as a cashier in a newsagents after just six weeks because his boss said, he talks too much to customers. He can talk to me all day.

The best part about being married is that feeling of being a team. All couples have ups and downs, so having someone you trust is priceless
