Adam Brody Quotations

And in a world without heroes, as the movie trailer voice-over guy might say, the slightly awkward can be slightly cool.

Really, as long as I am working and have diversity, I am happy.

Any time you end a relationship, and everyone has ended plenty in their life, it's always a tough thing and hard to get over.

My best jokes are so cheap. All I do is say things sarcastically.

Transitioning to being an unemployed film actor is different, but it's fun and I've been looking forward to it for a while.

I have been in teen shows for years, so doing that stuff - kissing - is kind of commonplace and not a big deal. It was way more cool just because it was Meg Ryan.

If I don't direct a movie at some point, I've failed personally.

I always enjoyed movies and in hindsight I realise how captivating they were to me.

I want to work with intelligent people and look for scripts that I think are intelligent and surprising.

It's bad writing, however naturalistic it's written, that's where you have to do your best acting.

There's no conversation more boring than talking about what it's really like to live in Newport and how the show compares to the real thing. I just don't care.

Comic books aren't nerdy. You'd have to be an idiot to think computers are nerdy.

I like to always have humour in whatever I do.

I wish I came from a more pure place. I don't have something to say from the bottom of my soul. I just know how to take stuff I like and repackage it in a slightly different way.

It's very important to me to love what I do. It was important to me to find a career that I truly enjoy. You can find something that sort of excites you, that's half the battle of life.

I am super-proud to have a sort of famous character in my background that if you're a certain age, he was probably a part of your youth. I think that's pretty cool.

I worry that I can come off smarmy. I wonder if I was listening to myself if I'd want to kick my own ass.

It helps if you don't date other actors, but actresses are beautiful. How can you say no?

I just want to be in good things that I want to see, and I want to work with talented people who are smarter than myself.

She's sweeter than any poodle, but she's strong and just won't heel, ... I do all the work. I'm the disciplinarian.

My favorite episodes of The O.C. are the ones where not much happens, where we take it down a notch. But I don't think the audience agrees with me.

I was like Nemo, Ryan. I found my way HOME.

Well, I guess most people would only know me from The O.C. I did a few episodes of Gilmore Girls before that. I was also a client on a lot of lawyer shows.

I always knew I was going to die in space.

I started drinking Scotch just to be a man.

I started a band [Big Japan] for fun. These sticks break easily, but they feel good.

I love movie-making. I'm interested in writing and directing, and I've dabbled, but I haven't done anything I care to brag about. Yet.

I don't know anyone who's going to see Grind 22 times in the theater. My mom. Some kid who has short-term memory loss and forgot that he's seen it.

I feel like Hollywood is a big high school again. Seriously, Ashton Kutcher is the prom king.

I just graduated from high school, and I was working at Blockbuster. Not only did I get into movies while I was there, but I was putting away boxes and looking at the kids on the covers. It felt like windows into these seemingly perfect lives.

Okay, using the dreaded middle name is not the best way to forge a bond.

Well, I guess most people would only know me from The O.C. I did a few episodes of Gilmore Girls before that. I was also a client on a lot of lawyer shows.

I do think that sometimes you can invent more palatable or digestible reasons versions or reasons, when perhaps you don't want to admit the truth to yourself, and sometimes we deceive ourselves - along with others - about our reasons and motives.

I try to make all of my roles likeable in some way.

I like great directors who are scarce. Prolific ones are nice too but for me, there's something about the scarcity that makes it all the more valuable.

I have a pretty lousy voice.
