More quotes by Nathan Fillion
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 job changes very little because I've found that the more you try to be funny, the less funny you become.
Nathan Fillion
It costs nothing to say something kind. Even less to shut up altogether.

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've got a fantastic life. I enjoy what I do for a living. I see the blessings I'm not blind.
Nathan Fillion
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.

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.

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

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.
Nathan Fillion
I think maybe, if I could be a Canadian super hero, I'd have some kind of freezing power and some sort of maple syrup weapon. Could be a little sticky.

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.
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 thought what would be really just choice for a revamp and a reboot is 'The Greatest American Hero.' I think I'd be just that kind of perfect not prepared for this kind of thing, but thrust into circumstances he's not prepared for... that's another niche of mine. Unpreparedness. Not knowing what to do. I'm good at being that guy.
Nathan Fillion
I have a trophy case that contains all the action figures ever made of me. It also has items I've stolen from my movies, like three guns and holsters from 'Serenity'.
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
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 like to say there's certain things you can't take back: One of them is 'I love you,' and one of them is bullets.
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
Working on Drive, a lot of fun. This is Tim Minear whom I've worked with before on Firefly of course. He called me up and said I've got a part for you that you will love and I love Tim's writing. I love his stories. I love his characters, his dialogue. He has a knack for reveals and he has a knack for moments.
