I like doing things where I can get dirty, work with my hands, and use power tools. Last weekend, I did some grouting.

More quotes by Nathan Fillion
I've always fantasized about being on TV. And I was. Then I fantasized about being in the movies. What could be better than captain of a space ship? I get to ride horses, shoot guns, have adventures.
Nathan Fillion
I think about my own daily choices every day in terms of how to find happiness.
Nathan Fillion
When you work on a soap opera, that's three years of you working every day. There was no time to do anything other than the soap opera - you're locked in.
Nathan Fillion
I relate to those characters - and any character I play - in as much as I put myself in their positions and feel how I would personally deal with their experiences.
Nathan Fillion
Oh, boy. I'm still in touch with about 90 percent of my exes. They would describe me as being unlucky in love.
Nathan Fillion
I'll never look down on and I love running into actors who say 'Oh yeah, I did a soap.' I say 'Tell me which one!' It's like being a member of a secret society.
Nathan Fillion
I slowly came to realize that this job of being an actor, you spend most of your time looking for work. That is your job. Your job is auditioning. You spend very little of your time actually working.
Nathan Fillion
In all my characters, I try to find an iota of myself, and in Castle, I found a lot. He gets away with a lot, so that's fun.
Nathan Fillion
I think it's a dance that people want to see. It's a chemistry that people want to see. In the same way that people don't want to see a perfect hero with no flaws who can handle anything, people don't want to see a perfect relationship. There's nothing interesting about that. People want to see you fail.
Nathan Fillion
When I go to a sci-fi convention, oh God, it's the closest thing to being a rock star I will ever know in this life. I want to be a rock star, don't you? It's a good thing to be, a rock star.
Nathan Fillion
It's hard to shake a stick at success.
Nathan Fillion
I kind of fell backwards into acting. I was studying to be a high school teacher. I look now and I understand completely, or actually barely, how much work it is to be a teacher. It's an incredible amount of work.
Nathan Fillion
I love doing 'Castle.' We pump out 24 episodes in 10 months, and we work long hours. We do lots and lots of takes, and everyone there is a talent machine. It is a taxing endeavour to say the least, but when you get into a groove, it doesn't matter if you're tired, it doesn't matter if you're sick. You can do it.
Nathan Fillion
I like making sci-fi movies because I like watching sci-fi movies. I like watching horror. I like being in a horror movie. I'm a fan. My perspective's a little different just because I get to participate as well as spectate.
Nathan Fillion
I'm the biggest geek of all. Adventure, fantasy, comic books - I can't get enough.
Nathan Fillion
Basically, after an ABC sitcom I did, I ended up with a holding deal with 20th Century Fox. Absolutely cool. It pays you to be unemployed. And the bigger the entity that gives you the deal, the better.
Nathan Fillion
Thank God there is a such thing as hiatus. We got the first 'Dr. Horrible' done in six days, we banged it out.
Nathan Fillion
I love 'Strange Brew'. I quote that movie all the time, and no one knows what I'm talking about.
Nathan Fillion
You have a dramatic portion of your television program and you treat it dramatically, and then you have a comedic portion of your program, and you treat it differently. Why do you change who are between the two pieces? You're the same person. Just go.
Nathan Fillion
I'm not a big prop actor.
