More quotes by 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
I tried making an album six years ago. It was just horrific. Trust me, it's smashed into smithereens. I paid big money to silence that one.
Hugh Jackman
I meditated before I hosted the Oscars, I meditate before I go on stage, I meditate in the morning and lunchtime when I'm on a film set.
Hugh Jackman
One afternoon when I was 9, my dad told me I'd be skipping school the next day. Then we drove 12 hours from Melbourne to Sydney for the Centenary Test, a once-in-a-lifetime commemorative cricket match. It was great fun - especially for a kid who was a massive sports fan.
Hugh Jackman
As an actor, you have many tools - your body, your voice, your emotions, mentally. In film, you have your eyes because they communicate your thought process. In fact, generally in film, what you don't say is more important than what you say. That's not so much the case for stage.
Hugh Jackman
Acting is something I love. It's a great craft that I have a lot of respect for. But I don't think it's any greater challenge than teaching 8-year-olds or any other career. In my life, I try not to make it more important than it is and I just hope that rubs off on the people around me.
Hugh Jackman
It's tough to watch a movie you're in - you put everything into it, you want everything to work, and you never know until you see it all together.
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
Salvatore Ferragamo have done some nice handmade suits for me.
Hugh Jackman
My gosh, I love food. If I wasn't an actor, I could be a completely different body shape right now.
Hugh Jackman
To have memories of those you have loved and lost is perhaps harder than to have no memories.
Hugh Jackman
I have two kids, career and I travel, and I don't think my life is any different than most couples. The most valuable commodity now for many people is time and how to parcel that out.
Hugh Jackman
There comes a certain point in life when you have to stop blaming other people for how you feel or the misfortunes in your life. You can't go through life obsessing about what might have been.
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
In terms of theater, there's not a more supportive theater community than in New York. It's really kind of a real thrill to go there. I mean, don't forget, I'm a boy from the suburbs of Sydney, so getting to New York is a huge, huge thrill.
Hugh Jackman
One thing that I love about World Vision is every place they go, they go in with an exit plan, they don't want people dependent on them.
Hugh Jackman
When lifting, I'm always with a trainer because the thing that makes a difference is that last 20% in your training, and he very scientifically looks after my food as well, because when I'm going for a 'shirt off' shot, everything changes the month before, and I'm timed down to the day.
Hugh Jackman
Boring' can be a lot of fun. Especially if it's on your own terms.
Hugh Jackman
My father taught me that losing your temper is a self-indulgent act.
Hugh Jackman
I can live with failure if it is born of conviction.
Hugh Jackman
