More quotes by John Krasinski
I am in that everything [ David Foster Wallace] writes is pretty much the best stuff I've read, so that makes me a fan I guess.
John Krasinski
I'm a huge classics fan. I love Ernest Hemingway and J.D. Salinger. I'm that guy who rereads a book before I read newer stuff, which is probably not all that progressive, and it's not really going to make me a better reader. I'm like, 'Oh, my God, you should read To Kill a Mockingbird.
John Krasinski
I don't want my kids to ever think that I am choosing my job over them.
John Krasinski
I hadn't heard the Gary Cooper thing so I'm not grounded now. I feel pretty good. That's incredibly nice. When I met Robin [Williams] at the read-through, I remember when he came in, I was so nervous meeting him for the first time is incredible because I did actually write him a letter when I was a kid and told him he was my favorite actor.
John Krasinski
Why don't we try falling in love first and then I'll see what happens after that?
John Krasinski
You can't do anything to be funny. That's cringeworthy. If your humor comes out of a place of love every time, you don't make the joke bigger than you. The funniest comedians are in touch with their emotional level.
John Krasinski
The first acting thing I ever did was my senior year I decided not to play a sport in the Spring and, in that Spring B.J. Novak who went to school with me, asked if I'd be in this show that was a parody of all the teachers in the school, 'sure!' That was the first acting thing I did.

My favorite water cooler topic is fantasy football. I used to make fun of friends for doing it and now I'm obsessed.
John Krasinski
People have a sense of humor, even if it's not a good one, and everybody has stakes.
John Krasinski
Trophies and medals have never meant much to me. I've had amazing experiences, which let you feel like you've accomplished something.
John Krasinski
I related so much to the responsibility of being a parent, the responsibility of did you screw your kid up, the responsibility of letting your own parents down.
John Krasinski
Boston is actually the capital of the world. You didn't know that? We breed smart-ass, quippy, funny people. Not that I'm one of them. I just sorta sneaked in under the radar.
John Krasinski
I have people printing that I have. Never been engaged. As far as what I think of marriage, I think it's great. I think I'd like to be married some day, but I'll start with love.
John Krasinski
All I've ever wanted to do was be a great dad, and yet there's no stopping this existential mirror that's held up to yourself when you're about to have a kid.
John Krasinski
For me, anything I do is totally up for conversation and it's not my right to be able to stop a person from writing whatever they want. What's harmful and hurtful is when people speculate.
John Krasinski
We have the best writers in the business [on The Office].
John Krasinski
The one-liner of this movie [ The Hollars], you've probably heard before: 'A guy goes home to his family and finds out about himself.
John Krasinski
That was okay [ working with George Clooney]. One of these days I'll work with a good director.
John Krasinski
I love this script [The Hollars] because I'm lucky enough to come from a really tightknit family.
