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.

More quotes by 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.

The nature of the beast is, art needs finance. That's how this industry works.

You know, I endeavor to be more like my older brother. He's very magnetic. He's actually very much like 'Castle' in that people are attracted to him, and just want to be near him. You want to know where my brother is in a crowded room? He's the guy with the crowd around him.

It's hard to shake a stick at success.

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.

Do something today you've been afraid to do. A decision based on fear is the wrong decision.

I love 'Strange Brew'. I quote that movie all the time, and no one knows what I'm talking about.

I love hiking in the hills not far from my house. I'm invested in my hikes. Sometimes kids go up there and spray-paint over the signs I've found a biodegradable paint cleaner, and I'll scrub the signs so they're nice and clean.

With scheduling and the way projects come up, I take the first thing that interests me and that moves me. If it's going to be fun, if I'm going to have a good time, and I'm going to enjoy the people I'm with, then that's a good enough reason to do it.

Castle is a guy living in a fantasy world. He's in his imagination, writing these stories of murder.

The Incredibles was the best movie ever made. Ever. Made. BSTL.
Nathan Fillion
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.
Nathan Fillion
My job changes very little because I've found that the more you try to be funny, the less funny you become.

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

My first Comic-Con was when I first met Joss Whedon: He introduced me to that world and I'd never been to a convention before that. He and a bunch of the 'Buffy' and 'Angel' writers were all going down in a big van and he invited me along.

You want to put out a TV show? If you have the money to do it on your own, by yourself, and you have a TV network, you can do it by yourself. But the nature of the beast is, art needs finance. That's how this industry works. So until the Internet becomes our source of entertainment - and watch it, I believe it will - this is how things go.
Nathan Fillion
I'm comfortable only when there's a mutual attraction. That's what anyone wants. If I find out she's not attracted to me, it brings down my level of attraction to her. If I'm interested and find out she's not, I tend to cool off.
Nathan Fillion
I want to be a working actor I want to do jobs that excite me and challenge me, and I want to something fun.

I'm not a famous celebrity of any kind. I'm a guy from Edmonton who's got a great job and I'm loving it.
