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 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.

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 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.

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

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.

It costs nothing to say something kind. Even less to shut up altogether.

What I know of Steve Trevor is everything that I learned from 'Wonder Woman,' the television series with Lynda Carter. And I don't remember much. I do remember his uniform, though.

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.

It's so great in Hollywood now. You have people past 40 sitting and talking about serious stuff, writing and making movies and TV, but there's laser pistols and superheroes and alien monsters involved. It's viable and mainstream.

I would cancel dialysis to be in the [hopefully upcoming Firefly] movie.

The trick is, when you grow up, find work that feels like play.

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

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

I'm actually reading 'World War Z' again! It's incredibly realistic and it's written as an oral history through interviews with different characters. Max Brooks wrote this book in so many different voices. There are about forty or so. It's incredible. When I finish 'World War Z' I'm going to go back and start again on the 'Game of Thrones' series.

Oh, boy. I'm still in touch with about 90 percent of my exes. They would describe me as being unlucky in love.

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.

I want my job to include a little adventure, a little more of a heightened reality than what I'm actually living. And 'Castle' has that. He gets this opportunity to tail these homicide detectives, and he's driven by that. He's a little immature, but he's obviously loving life.

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