Robert Downey, Jr.
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've always just shown up and tried to figure out what's for lunch and am I going to get to play some racquetball that night.

Robert Downey, Jr.
Remember that just because you hit bottom doesn't mean you have to stay there.
Robert Downey, Jr.

Robert Downey, Jr.
Does any new parent, even if you're not a first-time parent, ever really know what to do?
Robert Downey, Jr.
I felt like a fighter who was training for a title bout that had not been booked yet.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I really don't want to thank my wife because I could be bussing tables at the Daily Grill right now if not for her. Jesus, what a gig that'd be.
Robert Downey, Jr.
Mediocrity is my biggest fear. I'm not afraid of total failure because I don't think that will happen. I'm not afraid of success because that beats the hell out of failure. It's being in the middle that scares me.
Robert Downey, Jr.
It's weird when one movie that's connected to another doesn't reference that movie at all.
Robert Downey, Jr.
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. Like, you're not supposed to roll around on the ground anymore. You're not supposed to make fun of yourself. You're not supposed to ride a bicycle. But I'm a Toys-R-Us kid.
Robert Downey, Jr.
