Aaron Taylor Johnson Quotes

'Pulp Fiction' was probably one of the first films I ever saw that really kind of took effect on me. I was about four years old - obviously wasn't supposed to be seeing that film; my sister kind of sneaked it out and we got to see it. She's older than me. That was something I always used to watch.
Anyone who's got a guitar, you like to pick it up. I can play a couple of songs, some '50s rock and roll, a bit of Elvis. That's it, really - I'm not a musician, I'm not a singer.
For me, I can't watch violence when it's too grotesque, and it's just like, that's revolting to watch. I don't enjoy it. But when it's a Tarantino film, I'm lining up outside the door to see it, and I'm expecting to see something really crazy, a lot of blood, and for it to be funny.
I can't think of anything worse than trying to schmooze someone with the idea that you're an actor.
I did swimming, gymnastics, dance, and the acting was just a small part. I didn't have pushy parents; it wasn't forced upon me. They just said, 'See if you like it. If you do, great; if you don't, don't worry about it.' I was really fortunate to have that guidance and supportive parents.
I don't analyse things, and I don't look back. I can think forward - but only about my family. I don't look outside that and certainly don't care what anyone else thinks.
I don't go online, I don't read reviews, I try not to look at anything on the Internet.
I don't like to be me. I'm not so comfortable being me on screen because then I'd be a presenter. I'm not Jimmy Fallon.
I get more fulfilment from being a father than I do from being an actor.
I get on fine with my mum and dad, but if they want to see the grandchildren, they come to me.
I got into beards right in the middle of the hipster boom.
I have to be fully committed to do a project nowadays, because if I say yes to something, it means the whole family are going to have to move for the job. It's a lot of upheaval. So, it has to be really worth it. Otherwise, I'd just as well not bother.
I haven't got any friends from where I grew up, but that's not to do with fame.
I like my world to be calm.
I love being a father. It's one of my big jobs is just being a parent. It's one of my favorite things I do.
I love gardening, and I love cooking. I love things like that. I love creating things.
I think with anything where you delve into the back story of an artist, it kind of explains their work more intimately.
I want to work with great directors. I've picked films based on the script or the character and seen them collapse because the directors were not strong visionaries.
I was always told at school that you had to have a back-up plan, but all I ever wanted to do was act. There was no plan B for me.
I was brought up by my mum and my sister. I've always been around independent women; I like that. Anybody who's a fake I don't like and I don't talk to.
