More quotes by Wentworth Miller
Everyone has their challenges.
Wentworth Miller
I spend my weekends sleeping and watching DVDs, and eating at restaurants within a 2-block radius of my apartment.
Wentworth Miller
I think this is what college is all about: self-examination and dealing with those questions of Who am I?
Wentworth Miller
I feel extremely lucky, extremely grateful, and a little bittersweet, too.
Wentworth Miller
Michael Scofield is someone everyone can relate to, but nobody would want to be in his shoes.
Wentworth Miller
I'd like to go back and revisit the Flash/Captain Cold relationship, because that to me has been the heart of it all along. My impression is that The Flash is a show about a boy's journey into manhood. For the Flash character, there is a variety of male models presented to him, and Captain Cold is one of them.
Wentworth Miller
I want to aspire to something like what Denzel Washington does, which is try to find scripts written for white actors - or Jodie Foster, who reads scripts for male actors.
Wentworth Miller
I had a brief experience in the food industry. I was a bus boy in a Mexican restaurant in Arizona, scraping re-fried beans off people's plates. It teaches you a bit of humility and the importance of a good deodorant.
Wentworth Miller
My encounters with racism are sort of second-hand situations where I might be standing around with a group of white friends and someone makes a comment that they wouldn't make at my family reunion.
Wentworth Miller
You might look at my CV and see I've had 12 jobs, but I've been to over 450 auditions so I've heard 'no' a lot more than I've heard 'yes'. So if I go in looking only to meet my own standards, then that will make taking that rejection a little bit easier. And when I do get that job it will seem like icing on the cake.
Wentworth Miller
I worked with the same trainer that worked with Denzel Washington in THe Hurricane. It was three months of training, five days a week, 4 to 5 hours a day. This was followed by a month of choreography.
Wentworth Miller
Nobody's ever asked me to pay for a meal before I've eaten it, I've never been pulled over just because I was driving the wrong kind of car in the wrong kind of area at the wrong time of night.
Wentworth Miller
Entertainers are there to entertain. They aren't there to teach your children the lessons that you haven't bothered to teach them at home yourself.
Wentworth Miller
My rule is you want someone whos got both feet on the ground. An ideal girlfriend might be someone who works in the business and can understand what youre going through but is not an actor themselves - is willing to run lines with you but when you start acting crazy, they throw up their hands and take you for what you are and be accepting.
Wentworth Miller
An actor's job is to embrace emotions and situations that in real life we spend all of our time running away from.
Wentworth Miller
I think it's necessary when you're dealing with a dark show that has explosion and violence to have defined moments of lightness and humor, even romance. It's important, and it deepens the character, of course.
Wentworth Miller
My definition of cool is finding your own definition of cool and not necessarily taking your lead from what other people tell you or from what you might read from magazines or see on TV.
Wentworth Miller
This role is more visible, and I grew up without a lot of that sort of modeling so I'm relieved and proud to have done this film.
Wentworth Miller
I think ultimately that's why the audience will tune in longterm, for the characters and the relationships.
Wentworth Miller
My father is black and my mother is white. Therefore, I could answer to either, which kind of makes me a racial Lone Ranger, caught between two communities.
