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.

More quotes by Wentworth Miller
My character in 'Prison Break' needs to be formidable. In reality, I'm not very tough at all.
Wentworth Miller
I'm hoping that what I am or what I'm not ethnically doesn't limit me in anyone else's eyes. I guarantee you it doesn't in mine.
Wentworth Miller
To be honest, I find going out pretty scary and intimidating. Got all those people checking you out, with only one purpose: hooking up. I'm quite the dork, I'd rather sit home and play Scrabble. But that doesn't get you a girl, does it?
Wentworth Miller
I think that's the beauty of the current setup, is that Legends is meant to be a bit of a revolving door.
Wentworth Miller
I feel extremely lucky, extremely grateful, and a little bittersweet, too.
Wentworth Miller
It's the way the business works, you're not just an actor, you're a diplomat and a publicist and a politician, and there are certain expectations.
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
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
I broke my nose in gym when a ball hit me. I took a girl to her debutante ball the next week wearing a tux and a big, honking bandage. Not the romantic night she had in mind.
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'm neither sexy nor a star.
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
I'm pretty much a couch potato.
Wentworth Miller
I hadn't worked for a year when I had my Prison Break audition and it was the easiest audition I've ever had. I got the script on Friday, went to the audition on Monday and got the part on Tuesday. I was shooting the pilot a week later. I didn't have time to be nervous - it happened so quickly.
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
You have to love what you do, and you have to need it like you need air. And there's nothing else that would give me the same degree of satisfaction as acting, which is why I can't walk away from it.
Wentworth Miller
There's so much we can't express in our day-to-day interaction with people because it's considered inappropriate. And acting is all about being inappropriate.
Wentworth Miller
I think this is what college is all about: self-examination and dealing with those questions of Who am I?
Wentworth Miller
You only cry for help if you believe there is help to cry for.
Wentworth Miller
Four months of preparation and about 12 hours of shooting turned into about 30 seconds of screen time.
