Zachary Knighton Quotes

After filming I like to go home and lie down with my daughter and have a glass of wine so I don't really socialize with the other actors.

I've learned from the past that it's important to recharge and get time in-between jobs, and if I can't get time in-between jobs then when I know I've got some time coming up at the end of a job, really try and take advantage of that. And do very mundane things at home and putter in the garden and spend time with family and make music and, you know, play with the dogs. Just get back to being me.

To me luxury is to be at home with my daughter, and the occasional massage doesn't hurt.

Work is so much fun that it doesn't really seem like downtime when I'm not. But cooking, spending time with my family, friends and dog are what I'm usually doing when I'm not working on something.

I rarely get a moment to myself, but I love the way that my agenda is dictated by the children, not my work.

As soon as I get bored, I start missing the kids, so I don't let myself get bored. I just go surfing.

I think I need a little break. I've got a two-year old. I'll be part of The Leisure Class for a while.

I don't work all the time. That's why I waited to have children until I was ready for that. I try to organise my time according to them because they need me. I don't want to put my work first anymore because it's not as important as my children.

I don't have time to be going back and forth with nobody.' Even now, when I work, I'm excited to go home to see my son.

When I'm at home, I don't discuss business. I don't talk business. I don't answer the phone. It's just me, my wife, my children, my dogs. That's my world.

My work makes me a better mom. It gives me a little door to step out of my parenting and bring the excitement from my day back home.
