More quotes by Josh Radnor
I really like to travel when I write. Something about seeing new things and being in new cultures and environments provokes new thoughts in your head.
Josh Radnor
To write a story about New York that only deals with people in your age and socioeconomic bracket, that feels dishonest to me. So much of New York comes from everyone bumping into each other.
Josh Radnor
Acting on stage is still my favorite thing to do. And everyone who's been in musicals knows that there is nothing more fun.
Josh Radnor
We're like a gardener with a hose and our attention is water - we can water flowers or we can water weeds.
Josh Radnor
I don’t think evil people or negative people are inherently interesting all the time. People who are good people getting better at being themselves - to me, that’s something that’s really interesting to watch.
Josh Radnor
You know, I’m not saying, “Oh, because I play a good guy on TV, I need to suddenly be villainous in a movie.” I look at it more like: does this role has a kind of urgency for me in terms of, “can I not say no to it for whatever reason?”
Josh Radnor
Kindness is not about instant gratification. More often, it's akin to a low-risk investment that appreciates steadily over time.
Josh Radnor
Talk about what you love and keep quiet about what you don't.
Josh Radnor
When I write a film, there's a particular thing I am wrestling with and the question or concern I'm dealing with has to be big enough for me to dedicate a year or two of my life. If the question isn't big enough, or rich enough, I'll lose interest.
Josh Radnor
An obsessive attention to the news, I've realized, only serves to paint a picture of the world as a throbbing blob of dysfunction, most news falling somewhere on a scale from disappointing to calamitous.
Josh Radnor
It's really hard to be poor in New York - I was really poor when I lived in New York.
Josh Radnor
One man's uplift is another man's sentimental hooey.
Josh Radnor
There's that great Bill Hicks line - the comedian - where he says, Are you proud to be an American? I don't know. It's just where my parents had sex.
Josh Radnor
My trick is the trick that everyone knows: Work really hard and prepare.
Josh Radnor
There's something touching about a kid who's reading a book that's printed on actual paper. I think that anything that kids start reading, within reason, can lead to other discoveries.
Josh Radnor
One thing I'm most proud of, in my movies, is that I think the performances are super-strong, but that's not all me. I think part of it is casting appropriately.
Josh Radnor
I'm not a masochistic reader. If something is just too dense or not enjoyable, even though I'm told it should be good for me, I'll put it down. That said, most of what I read would be considered high-end or good for you, I suppose. But, I also think that reading should be enjoyable.
Josh Radnor
There's something melancholy about professors because they're chronically abandoned. They form these lovely relationships with students and then the students leave and the professors stay the same. It's like they're chronically abandoned.
Josh Radnor
I learned a lesson which I didn't heed: Don't put yourself in your movies. It's too much.
Josh Radnor
My whole thing is that I want to explore why you read books, what's the purpose of reading, and maybe that it's not that cool to hate something just because it's popular.
Josh Radnor
