I don't like scary movies.

I want to do more work behind the camera.

I'm just a softie at heart, a scaredy cat.

The sidekick business has been good to me.

There is nothing as special as watching greatness.

I actually think I've got a pretty good horror scream.

Every day you've got running shoes on, it's a good day.

The jealousy I feel twards Orlando Bloom exists on many levels.

My diet is always terrible, unfortunately. I don't know moderation.

You can't play a hobbit if you're not prepared to be a part of nerd culture.

The filmmakers who I'm pining to work for aren't ringing my phone off the hook.

I'm much more prone to feeling down a lot. I just feel sluggish and unmotivated.

I think I've begun to take for granted how easily information can swirl around me.

'Lord of the Rings' was 2001, 2002, and 2003, but Twitter didn't start until 2007!

When you're a kid, you just have no concept of anything other than what you're doing.

A perfect run has nothing to do with distance. It's when your stride feels comfortable.

I absolutely do not think that I have even a vague recollection of what normal life is like.

It's in our own lives, every single day, whether we recognize it as funny at the moment or not.

It's just fun to be on a movie set and looking to find the comedy in sweet, simple family moments.

I think that I have a seriousness of purpose, a lot of support, and a healthy amount of good fortune.

My career is very easy to interpret. It's about working. I'm a working actor, so that's how I see myself.

My mother wouldn't let me play football because she was afraid I would get hurt, so I played flag football.

If you're not the guy who is going to puff your chest out like a rooster and go fight somebody, our society discards you.

Everyone on 'The Goonies' and everyone on 'Lord Of The Rings' knew that we were a part of something that was going to be big.

A doable goal for me is to finish a marathon under four hours. I'm doing all the training, but the hardest part is eating right.

My dad was a Buddhist when I was young, so when I was begging to become a Catholic, he was saying no and imparting Buddhist precepts.

The hybrid I have now is one of the least expensive cars I've ever had. I had a BMW 318i convertible once, the ultimate driving machine.

I'm not smart enough to play 'Dungeons & Dragons.' Maybe if someone were to take me by the hand and slowly and carefully walk me through.

My dad was a Buddhist when I was young. So, at a point when I begging become Catholic he was saying "no" and imparting Buddhist precepts.

When Trump goes after the media and calls it fake news, he should be impeached - and everyone should say this. But the media lives in fear.

It's shocking how sophisticated little kids can be, when it comes to behaving in a professional manner, and that's a credit to their parents.

I'm like the universe; either expanding or contracting at any given moment. The most that I had put on was about 35, 36 pounds, and I've taken all of that off.

I first heard about 'Stranger Things' from people dressed as the characters coming up to me at conventions saying, 'Hey, you have to see this show. It's 'Goonies.'

I kind of peak at how far I can push my body, and then I run out of determination for the habit and start easing off. It's really just a lack of focus and discipline.

I definitely loved going on stage, I loved the nervous feeling and the performance and the doing-ness of it. It always felt kind of natural and inevitable and logical.

I've worked with some of the greatest filmmakers in the history of the medium, and they all have something in common: a quality that is creative, comfortable, and thoughtful.

I've got a body of work now, I've been doing movies for 32 years, and you never know which movie it is that somebody might reference to you, so you've got to be ready for everything.

I'd never heard of the 'Lord of the Rings', actually. So I went to the bookstore and there it was, three shelves of books about Tolkien and Middle-earth, and I was like, 'Holy cow, what else am I missing out on?'

My wife is very patient. On our honeymoon in 1992, we got a motor home and drove from L.A. to Idaho and then down the coast. I was running a lot, then so she would drop me off, drive six miles, park and wait for me.

I told another ESPN friend here, I love all sports. I can't think of any I don't love. I've even come to appreciate cricket. Maybe I could play a sportswriter. I don't know. Anything in the sports realm is appealing.

I had a couple of experiences as a kid with animals where I hurt them, kind of unintentionally, and when I saw that a human being can hurt an animal it really affected me. And my kids...they became animal rights activists.

A paparazzo once jumped out of a car and started running backward with me. I slowed down out of courtesy because she started drifting into the street. I reached out my hand and moved her back so she didn't get hit by a bus.

I remember Michael Jackson once called to see if I was feeling okay because I had gone home sick from the set of 'Goonies'; they'd shut down production for a couple days. I was so excited he called, but he didn't leave his number.

I feel like I'm close to all the 'Lord of the Rings' and 'Goonies' people, but I'm kind of sequestered with my wife and kids. But as soon as there's some reason for all of us to be together, it's like no time has passed, lots of hugs.

The first stage I preformed on were the stairs to the hallway in the living room. There was a really nice platform, and when people were sitting in the living room, it was kind of an elevated platform and we would put on shows and skits.
