My central strength as an actor is the fact that I'm 6 foot 3. A certain power emanates from my size, juxtaposed with the fact that I try to find an element of sensitivity in every character I play. People enjoy seeing that because it goes against what we're led to expect as far as the way men are supposed to be - macho and all that.
People are often surprised that I am so upbeat. I'm always hearing, 'You're so light and funny, and your books are so dark and twisted.' There's a dichotomy. I like books that are dark and creepy. I don't control it - it's just what I gravitate toward.
When I say a spoken Hebrew sentence, half of it is like the King James Bible and half of it is a hip-hop lyric. It has a roller-coaster effect.
you...are...a...frige...with...wings...we...are...freaking...ballet...dancers!
Don't be afraid to wear fancy dress-up pieces with your everyday denim jeans/shorts.
My parents were like these hippies almost: they are free-spirited, but they were also strict - which seems like a weird dynamic - but it worked.
A kind of synthesis, but with some elements that perhaps you wouldn't have expected in advance. I always like that when that happens, when something comes that is more than the sum of the parts.
A gorilla with a cellphone riding a bicycle is bound to generate some clever captions.
I wear a lot of boyish stuff, but I prefer to throw a fur coat on top just for the hell of it.
When you think of Gallant's music and his voice, you don't automatically think, 'Oh, Eric Nam would be great a fit' or 'Hey! Tablo would be an amazing fit.'
Initially I thought: 'I would never get cast opposite Will Smith! No one would ever buy it with the age difference, our personalities.' I can't think of a couple that makes less sense in every way, shape and form.
Werewolves and Arabians. It's like chocolate and peanut butter - a delicious combination.
The unlikely combination of potatoes and pasta does appear in some Italian recipes.
I just love the ideal of the surreal quality of putting it on a shoe.
Any place where the Jewish district is the hipster district is a very surreal and awesome place.
I have had to work long and hard to eradicate the dangerous delusion that, in a bad position, I could always, or nearly always, conjure up some unexpected combination to extricate me from my difficulties.
I have the mind of a 1 in a 2-guard's body.
If you take the duality of things - like sunny-sounding music with weird lyrics on it - it makes this dichotomy. I've never had that because when I make music, I make major chords, happy-sounding stuff, and my lyrics are positive.
I believe a person of any fine feeling scarcely ever sees a new face without a sensation akin to a shock, for the reason that it presents a new and surprising combination of unedifying elements.
