Walton Goggins
Unfortunately, when you're the king of the hill, there's really only one way to go, and that's down.
Walton Goggins
No, but there are people I grew up with from the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains that would give any person on 'Justified' a run for their money in the scary department.
Walton Goggins
I find that I have no problem getting a table at a restaurant when I walk in.
Walton Goggins
I wrote about wasting time, which I suppose is a part of the great human journey. We're supposed to wallow, to go through the desert without water for a long time so that when we finally drink it, we'll truly need it and we won't spill a drop. It's about being present.
Walton Goggins
