More quotes by Hugh Jackman
But in another world, another life, probably growing up in another country, I might have been more of a dancer.
Hugh Jackman
Singing is incredibly physical.
Hugh Jackman
Being on Broadway is the modern equivalent of being a monk. I sleep a lot, eat a lot, and rest a lot.
Hugh Jackman
To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. The only reason I wanted to make money as an actor was because I'm passionate about food!
Hugh Jackman
I had a bad back for a couple of years. I had to do a lot of physiotherapy for it. What I couldn't understand at the time was why the therapists had me doing a lot of stomach work.
Hugh Jackman
My favorite play in drama school was 'The Bacchae.' It's about a king who literally gets eaten alive by all the women in the play in a kind of orgy - it's related to the word 'bacchanal' - and I loved that idea of animalistic chaos and following our own desires.
Hugh Jackman
The definition of being good is being able to make it look easy.
Hugh Jackman
I was brought up in a way that when you're at a dinner party, you don't grab a chip unless it's been offered to everyone else. It's the manners of being brought up by English parents.
Hugh Jackman
Australians are coffee snobs. An influx of Italian immigrants after World War II ensured that - we probably had the word 'cappuccino' about 20 years before America. Cafe culture is really big for Aussies. We like to work hard, but we take our leisure time seriously.
Hugh Jackman
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
Hugh Jackman
I just find the evangelical church too, well, restrictive. But the School of Practical Philosophy is non-confrontational. We believe there are many forms of scripture. What is true is true and will never change, whether it's in the Bible or in Shakespeare. It's about oneness.
Hugh Jackman
I truly believe that the job of an actor and the drive of an actor is simulating the internal journey in life which is to get deeper and deeper into our understanding of who we are.
Hugh Jackman
By nature I'm not a brooder.
Hugh Jackman
My dad's main client was the World Bank, and he spent most of his time traveling to Third World countries. His particular interest lay in the eradication of poverty through development and business.
Hugh Jackman
To me, the smell of fresh-made coffee is one of the greatest inventions.
Hugh Jackman
With age, you see people fail more. You see yourself fail more. How do you keep that fearlessness of a kid? You keep going. Luckily, I'm not afraid to make a fool of myself.
Hugh Jackman
I have a terrific marriage, but unlike a lot of relationships where they ebb and flow, no matter what happens you fall deeper and deeper in love every day. It's kind of the best thing that can happen to you. It's thrilling.
Hugh Jackman
Because I believe actually the more you do something, the less frightening it becomes because you start to realize the outcome is not as important as you think.
Hugh Jackman
Anyone can be an idealist. Anyone can be a cynic. The hard part lies somewhere in the middle.
Hugh Jackman
I had a fairly enlightened dad, though if you looked at his resume, it might not seem that way. He was a chartered accountant for Price Waterhouse. He was strict, and we had a very ordered life. To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car.
