From the time I was a little kid, I was always shy. Performing was when I was outgoing. So I guess I am a loner. I get claustrophobia if a lot of people are around.
I'm actually pretty reserved.
I am said to be difficult of acquaintance, unwilling to meet any one half way, and showing a social manner which is easy, not diffident, but formal and unresponsive, tending constantly to hold people off.
Most people seem to think I'm the kind of guy who shaves with a blowtorch. Actually I'm bookish and worrisome.
I tend to be a little bit more quiet and just to myself. I'm a little bit more introverted than extroverted.
I'm very quiet and shy in my personal life, as hard as that is to believe.
I've always been a reserved cat. When I play sports, there's people used to get mad at me because I didn't hang out and things like that. I've never been that kind of person. Nothing has changed in that regard. I've never been posse, and all that. I'm a quiet storm.
If I meet two guys at the same time and one of them is coming on really strong and talking a lot, and the other is more quiet and reserved, I'm going to like the second one. I want someone who isn't going to give it away in the first meeting.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a quiet guy.
I was a bookish kid, not really athletic.
I always was the quiet type, never said that much.
I was very much in my own world, never the popular kid. But I had a great family, a great brother and mother.
I'm a behind-the-scenes guy. I've got a face for radio.
I really was the nerd in the car that read vocabulary books. If we were going on day trips, I would quite like to have just stayed in the car with my German and French vocab books. It's embarrassing to admit to it now.
Something most people don't know about me is that I'm quite the loner, I would say. I don't really ever leave my house.
I'm a quiet person in real life.
I'm so quiet if you don't know me.
I'm a very private, very reclusive kind of guy.
I've never been this loud personality. I don't dominate the room when I walk into it. I save that for stage.
I'm more of a listener than a talker.
I'm generally soft spoken, very measured, and I think 500 times before I say something.
I am naturally taciturn, and became a silent and attentive listener.
I am reserved; I don't speak much.
I was very, very shy when I was little. Acting lets you access all those different parts of yourself to make the character authentic.
I have never met a man more shy than Clark Gable. He was so shy, you couldn't make him talk.
