Drew McIntyre Quotes

The most important advice you can give anyone about to appear on TV is incredibly prosaic - be yourself.

At the outset, I think that one should be natural, not just when it comes to writing but in every area of life. If you try to be something that you are not just to impress others, then it's a rather sad life.

There's not much difference between what I appear to be on stage and what I am. I think people like that, that I'm not trying to pull a caper.

I'm at my best when I'm being genuine and sincere, and reading my material straight up to an audience that wants to listen.

When I'm onstage they know I'm honest, and I try to be as humble as I can.

I have no affectation when I speak.

I'm not trying to be something I ain't. That's right. I'm me.

When we see a natural style, we are astonished and charmed; for we expected to see an author, and we find a person.

I'm into sincerity in music and sincerity in art. If it doesn't feel true, I don't want to do it. Things that are too dramatic scare me. I think that's why I don't always fit into the world of performing arts.

I feel like, if the guys can look at me in the huddle and see a calm and collected face, that they're going to relax a little bit. The way I look at it, leadership and being that guy is, don't be someone you're not. Don't be a hoorah guy jumping around and clapping your hands if you're not that guy.

I am the same on camera as I am off. I can't imagine being any other way.

Why should we change on stage? We're not trying to be something big and fancy, it's just us, doing what we do, we'd like to keep it that way.

I'm not an actor. Lord knows, I'd be acting if I were an actor. What you see is what you get.

The one thing I've always tried to do in my life, in my work, on TV, is I just keep it real. I find it hard and time-consuming to try to be fake.

People can see through crap pretty easily. Just go out there and be comfortable. Be you. Be authentic.

What you bring to the stage is what you are in real life... people sense that.

I dislike being fake the most in this world; thus, when the ambience is natural and comfortable, I find it unforgettable.

I just think the more you're in front of camera, the better: my main aim is just to tell the truth, be natural, and believe in what I'm doing, and hopefully that comes across as a rawness.

I am who I am. I don't try to be something I'm not.

I think there's kind of a comfortability with me onstage - and I think my cool factor is not having one. I'm not extra cool or extra different.

I never put myself under any pressure or anything. I embrace the moment, play in the moment, and I feel strong. Nothing fazes me; I just want to be myself.

I don't feel pressure.

Truth. It feels cool, like water washing over my sticky-hot body. Cooling a heat that's been burning me up all my life. Truth, I say inside my head again, just for that feeling.

In my experience, it tends to be a real reflection of someone's intelligence, confidence and sensitivity when they can just be real.

When I go on stage I am just, I don't make any attempts to do anything more than just what makes me comfortable.
