There's comedy even in tragedy. There's comedy in life. And in 'Castle', we go for that comedy.

More quotes by Nathan Fillion
I remember when TiVO first came out I was all about TiVo. I came home and that thing was frozen, and I thought 'This is awful. This is the end of the world'. Then I unplugged it, and I plugged it back in, and still frozen. It was paralyzing. I called them. They said, 'Just unplug it longer.' Fixed. But it also taught me I'm an addict.

I realized, dumb people don't know they're dumb. When people try to make me laugh and they try to be funny, that's when they lose me. I find a lot of comedy in honesty.
Nathan Fillion
Never trust a southerner. No, I'm kidding. They're wonderful. You want to believe in his niceness and his charm, but he's an evil kind of crazy man who's righteous. Fear the righteous.

I don't have 4 or 5 projects in front of me and an offer on every one saying 'what one would you like to do?' Things come along one at a time.

Being in the industry, I've seen many situations where someone will get the call from the network where they say 'You guys have 5 episodes to wrap it up.' Then all your long-term story arcs gotta get wrapped up in five episodes because that's how many episodes you got left. I would hate to see that happen to 'Castle'.

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

I was attending the University of Alberta. I was going to be a high school teacher, like my parents. I failed - no, I didn't fail a class, I just barely passed. I really didn't try. It was Canadian history, through the plays of the time. My God, those were boring plays.

I'm the biggest geek of all. Adventure, fantasy, comic books - I can't get enough.

I had a Ford F-250. It was a big ol' farm truck, but it wasn't a rig. That's about the biggest I've ever driven. That's what I drove back and forth to high school. I was a poor guy, and it was a truck that my uncle owned and let me drive because I had no money.

Thank God there is a such thing as hiatus. We got the first 'Dr. Horrible' done in six days, we banged it out.

I live in Los Angeles and I like to do a lot of hiking. I live a very relaxed life.

No one wants to see a person on TV who's super-ultra-cool. That's Superman, that's a thing of the past. Heroes are now flawed, and have terrible tempers, you know? They're real people.

My brain is like a hard drive. Once you start adding new information, you start cutting off old information.

I've always noticed a difference between working with a director and working with a writer/director. In how much they're invested and how specific they are.

People keep inviting me back. It's nice to work with the same people when you've had a good time previously, and this is one of those cases.

I had an Indiana Jones fedora that I loved. I don't know what happened to it. I don't know where it went. Wish I had it back. Whoever's got it, you suck.

The trick is, when you grow up, find work that feels like play.
Nathan Fillion
Do something today you've been afraid to do. A decision based on fear is the wrong decision.
Nathan Fillion
My worst day is still a really good day. I complain, but I catch myself and count my blessings. I am truly blessed.
Nathan Fillion
I consider 'Dr. Horrible' a tremendous success. The fact that it won an Emmy I just think lends validity to what we were doing and the point we were trying to make: taking the power into someone else's hands and changing the world.
