Oh I love horror movies, yeah. I think my favorite movie growing up was 'The Omen.' I actually wanted to be that little kid.Collection: Movies
I think it's interesting to have a cool character not look so cool, you know?Collection: Cool
You can't not look cool with a crossbow.Collection: Cool
I'm one of those guys that - as far as relationships and stuff go - if you smile at me, I'm like, 'Let's date for three years' - which is just ridiculous.Collection: Smile
The dogs with the loudest bark are the ones that are most afraid.
I'm not afraid to take chances or go off on my own.
I've always said it's interesting to watch devils cry when angels want to stab you in the back. I like that mixture.
I don't have a mullet, but going into season one on 'The Walking Dead,' I asked to have a mullet, and everybody talked me out of it. Because I'd have to wear a mullet when we were not shooting every day. I have that motorcycle, wings on my vest, the crossbow... Maybe a mullet would've thrown me over the edge.
I'm still insecure, but when I first started acting, I was really insecure. I glared at a lot of people. I assumed everyone hated me. Somehow that scowl has turned into an acting career.
I think violence has always been popular, way before movies started being made.
I went camping one time when I was twelve, to the Great Lakes. My friend stepped in really deep muddy water and started screaming and sinking. My mom ran up, and I was just standing there a foot away and wouldn't stick out my hand to pull him up. So I'm probably not the best person to take on a camping trip.
I've shot films in locations that have seemed haunted. I shot a film in a maximum-security prison in Russia. Part of it was on a psychiatric ward - there were definitely some creepy vibes there.
I'm constantly busy.
I'm one of those people who can watch a stupid movie and end up crying.
Oh, I love horror movies, yeah.
Damaged people gravitate towards damaged people.
People are pretty strange.
I like people who push the envelope.
I don't think anyone wants to cuddle a zombie.
I'm constantly running away from everything. I'm running away from things on a daily basis. I run away from relationships. I run away from responsibilities.
I'm a T-shirt-and-Levi's type of a guy.
I'm more of a listener than a talker.
I love smashing stuff.
I'm certainly honest - and I can be socially awkward.
I'm so fortunate, it's ridiculous.
Yelling Irish, you can sound like an angry Leprechaun.
If a woman is dishonest, that kills it for me. I can't even talk to her anymore.
I used to hang out with a bunch of old punk rockers when I was a little kid.
In my trailer, I work out with free weights and do situps and push-ups. I'm just trying to stay lean and active looking.
I did a film called 'Floating' early on that had a scene which was similar to a real-life situation I was in at the time. It involved me having a conversation with my father, who was dying. It was close to home and it made me realise acting wasn't just making faces for the cameras, it was a real art form.
I basically eat a lot of proteins, and I've been eating smaller portions of food. I try to eat all locally raised and organic produce.
I've had shows as a painter, as a photographer, I've done shows as a sculptor. I've done a lot of different things and it all comes from experiences that you have in your life, in your creative environment. They all help - I don't even know if they help; maybe they make it worse but they all influence each other, for sure.
I saw 'True Blood' once, and I like the jazzy feel of it and stuff.
I've been camping and stuff, but if you left me in the woods I'd probably just curl up and cry until someone found me.
When you do television, you have this opportunity to drop these subtle hints everywhere. The way you say things, for example, sometimes those seeds turn into trees.
You do a film and you know where you're going, you have this material to stretch and play with as much as possible because you know how it ends.
I followed a girl I met in Japan to Los Angeles and ended up working in a motorcycle store. I quit the job one night, went to a party in the Hollywood Hills and ended up yelling at a bunch of people. Someone saw me yelling and asked me to be in a play. The first night, there was an agent in the audience who took me on and sent me out for jobs.
I'm always taking pictures and travelling with a camera and have so many photos that I've done a book.
I have a cartoon I'm developing with Adult Swim called 'Monster Town U.S.A.,' so I'm busy doing that. Trying to do a coffee-table book of my photography that's been requested of me a couple of times. I'm constantly busy.
I had fears going into television that it might become boring to me, and I always like to be challenged, push myself. You do a film, and you know where you're going; you have this material to stretch and play with as much as possible because you know how it ends.
I've been into Sonic Youth since junior high school. I think I kind of have ADD, so it's good music for ADD because it just throws you in different directions all the time. I really like Kim Gordon's voice and Thurston Moore's voice, and I like the guitars going off on tangents.
I've been a huge Psychedelic Furs fan for a long time. I love Butler's paintings, too. I like all their songs. I'll even crank 'Pretty in Pink,' I don't care.
Peanut Butter Wolf is my relaxing music, my lunch music, my chilling music.
Do not have regrets. Guilt is a wasted emotion.Collection: Regret
I’m a quiet person. I spend time observing, not speaking.Collection: Quiet Person
There's a happiness about me, a confidence and a happiness that I didn't have when I was younger. You feel good inside, you look good outside. I feel like I look like somebody who's having a good life, who's enjoying it a little better than I did before. You can be really good-looking in your twenties but feel miserable, and people just sort of walk away.Collection: Good Life
I like playing these awkward moments in between that build relationships. I don’t ever want to play that character that grabs the girl and has my way with her. That’s just not who that character is. If Daryl falls in love with you, he’s going to love you for the rest of his life.Collection: Girl
It's really easy to take something small and make it big in your head and fight against it.Collection: Fighting
Slow down, totally. You have to slow down and pay attention to everything.Collection: Attention
You feel good inside, you look good outside. I feel like I look like somebody who's having a good life, who's enjoying it a little better than I did before.Collection: Good Life
