More quotes by Joe Manganiello
Every weekend the drama department would have parties. The 20 hot girls on campus? All of them were in the drama dept. So we'd have somebody standing guard at the door to keep all the computer science guys out. We had to guard our women at all times.
Joe Manganiello
I train like a pro-athlete, not like an actor who's just trying to look pretty.
Joe Manganiello
I started working at clubs when I was sixteen, which is young. I would not want my kid doing that, but I did, and that's how it went.
Joe Manganiello
I am kind of giant … on (the True Blood) set.
Joe Manganiello
The best love advice I've ever received is probably, 'I'm not leaving the relationship I'm just leaving the house.'
Joe Manganiello
Acting was the only place that I ever felt like I belonged so went for it with everything I had.
Joe Manganiello
When I first got out of drama school, my original manager tried to get me to change my name because people were having trouble spelling it and saying it.
Joe Manganiello
American comedies especially are all about these men being browbeaten by their wives and it's impossible for me to watch.
Joe Manganiello
I think when portraying someone that does exist in real life, there's an amount of respect and you want to do them justice. I don't really care what anybody says out there about what I did in the film I care what these guys thought about what I did. If I'm making them happy, then I know I'm on the right track.
Joe Manganiello
I don’t think there’s any such thing as male objectification…I think that word exists only with women because there are societal pressures for them to behave a certain way and to look a certain way. Someone put it to me once: Women are sex objects and men are success objects. That was really interesting to me.
Joe Manganiello
I'm glad that I lost, I'm glad that I failed, I'm glad that I felt that way and decided to do something about it... I never wanted to feel that way again and it drove me.
Joe Manganiello
What's funny is that male strippers don't wear thongs anymore. They wear flat backs.
Joe Manganiello
Sex accounts for about 40 percent of your relationship, but if it's bad, then it's 60.
Joe Manganiello
I'd rather be a liar than an asshole.
Joe Manganiello
I quit because that thing inside of me that was driving me to drink that way was causing me so much pain that I was starting to get afraid for my own life, and my own health. It wasn't necessarily one instance. It was a lot that had piled up.
Joe Manganiello
I think you can be athletic and intellectual at the same time.
Joe Manganiello
I got to L.A. in 2000, when we were coming off the '90s: women looked like men and the men all looked like women.
Joe Manganiello
Matt Bomer and I went to Carnegie Mellon for drama together.
Joe Manganiello
I went to a school that's predominantly computer science and engineering. So, there's a real shortage of hot girls, let's say.
Joe Manganiello
I mean, everyone walks into the gym on day one skinny or fat. Arnold Schwarzenegger walked into the gym skinny at 15 or 16, and I was that way, too.
