John Krasinski
I love this script [The Hollars] because I'm lucky enough to come from a really tightknit family.
John Krasinski
A lot of times in movies, you see the small town people, being bowled over by this creative entity or this corporate ideal, and it's not true, at all.
John Krasinski
The only reason why I acted in school was because of the community, like I was in the chorus of every play, I was never really the lead.
John Krasinski
We live in a very modern age and the dynamic of raising kids and being a professional are intersecting a lot more - especially for women.
John Krasinski
The perfect gadget would somehow allow me to fly. Isn't that what everybody wants? It would also cook a damn good microwave pizza. So while in flight you had something to eat - an in-flight meal. Where would I go? Well, nowadays, it would probably just take me to work a lot quicker.
John Krasinski
I think one of the coolest things about the job is the level of trust we have for each other. The actors fully trust that the writers will write amazing episodes, and the writers trust that the actors will follow their instincts with the characters
John Krasinski
I don't want my kids to ever think that I am choosing my job over them.
John Krasinski
The funniest comedians are in touch with their emotional level.
John Krasinski
It's definitely particular to each situation, but whether it is a long history, or someone that you're intimidated by, or someone that you didn't think you ever had a shot at, at the end of the day, I think we're all living through high school, every day.
John Krasinski
People have a sense of humor, even if it's not a good one, and everybody has stakes.
