Garrett Hedlund Quotes

• [on being inspired by co-star Hugh Jackman on the set of Pan] Hugh’s amazing. He sets a standard for young males all over the place. He puts 110 percent into everything he does, including fitness. Hugh and I trained with this wonderful trainer named David Kingsbury. We got some gym sessions in together. It’s a lot to keep up with, but it’s wonderful to see someone who works out as hard as he does, it’s inspiring.
• When Terrence Howard and I worked together [on John Singleton’s Four Brothers (2005)], he showed me what was basically the first thing I ever learned on a guitar. It was a little Spanish number. But by the time we started working on On the Road (2012) together, five years later, I’d obviously learned how to play more, so Terrence came to my room with a guitar and played a song, and then I played a song, and then he played a song, and then I played a song – this must have gone back and forth about 12 times. It was nice to have been able to do that.
• A great amount of good is always evened out by a great amount of bad. I find it’s best to acknowledge that weird balance.
• I’ve always had a longstanding dream, ever since I was a kid, where I was running on a big lake of ice and I kept running and kept running, just about to where I was trying to get to, and I fell through the ice, and then I couldn’t find the hole where I fell through to get back out again. It was always like this certain thing where I could only get so far before everything collapses. So I guess it’s a bit of living in fear. But I don’t try to put it that way, because I feel that is going to pull everything you fear toward you. It’s about acknowledging the fear for about five percent, and then ninety-five percent goes into shrugging it all off.
• Everything to me in life is like the second scratch.
• I’ve been told I’m too good looking for certain roles, but that’s okay, it just motivates me to go deeper.
• [on Friday Night Lights (2004)]: I grew up on a farm, and Lucas in the jungles of Alabama, so I think we adapted very well. It’s just a lot that these guys are holding on their shoulders at such a young age. There’s a lot they’re dealing with, the town pressure or support, their home life, all of that causes a sense of internal insecurities. These guys are realizing how crazy it is that they’re going through all this at such a young age.
