Growing up is something that you do your whole life. I want to always feel that I can be a kid if I want. Growing up has some negative connotations.

I don't like words coming out of a character's mouth that I adore because not only is he a little bit duplicitous but he's kind of practical in the way he thinks, and he thinks in terms of everyone's humanity and how quickly we can go against what we think we meant when we said it or what we believe or blah, blah, blah.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I'm an actor, a husband, a father of two, and a full-time Avenger.
