Johnny Galecki Quotes - BrainyQuote

American - Actor Born: April 30, 1975

It's that one thing that you're passionate about, that you end up developing tunnel vision for and everything else tends to fall by the wayside. Passion is appealing and universal.

Passion You Vision End

I was a huge theater geek growing up, and that was not the easiest thing in the world, especially growing up in Chicago, where sports are really the norm. I was always off to the theater at night, from 7 years old on. Friends there in the Midwest who could talk to you about the idiosyncrasies of 'Pippin' were few and far between.

Sports You Night World

Scientists are not these guys in lab coats deep in the inner bowels of universities and hospitals with their Bunsen burners. They're the people molding the culture that we live in, the future of our culture, and the technology we rely on every day. These are the rock stars of our time right now.

Technology Day Time Stars

There is that stereotype of a nerd with the high pants and pocket protector and that kind of thing. That can sustain comedy for maybe a movie - hence the 'Revenge of the Nerds' franchise - but not for hopefully years on the air. It's a sight gag, not a story.

Revenge Comedy Story High

Comedy is similar to hockey... in only one way. You get a lot of credit for assists. So I try to serve whatever the intention is, be it the joke or the story or the scene or the moment or the kiss, even if it's not my joke or moment.

You Moment Kiss Comedy

In a series, you really need to stay open-minded. It's not like a play or a film, where you can create and fully commit to your character's back-story.

Character You Play Your

I used to know Jennifer Love Hewitt. We lived in the same apartment building when I was about... jeez, I guess it was when I was doing 'Christmas Vacation', so I was about 13 or 14.

Christmas Love Vacation Building

As they say, there are two rules in improv: Never say no, and never ask why. When another actor asks 'Why?' or says no to something you're suggesting, then it's very clear that they're putting the onus on you, because they're not comfortable with it themselves.

You Never Rules They Say

You know, I read the papers and I watch the news a lot. I watch 'Dateline' and '48 Hours'. And I think we have a tendency to become terrified of one another, thinking that there is a serial killer that is on either side of you.

You Thinking Think News

Perhaps 'Big Bang' fans feel so protective of the show because it is, despite being a hit show on a big network, something of a word-of-mouth phenomenon.

Feel Fans Being Something

We didn't have a TV because we didn't have a whole lot of money. My parents would have their friends over - their friends who thought, 'How can you live without a TV?'

Money You Parents Friends

It's never been a priority for me to concentrate on the likability of the character.

Me Character Never Been

'Entourage' is a great show, but it's fantasy. I spent my twenties in L.A. in this business, and my life didn't look anything like that. 'Big Bang' reflects a side of men that is rarely shown. We see their flaws - all of them.

Life Business My Life Men

I bought a little hideaway up north, so I'll ship my motorcycle up there. It's much less dangerous than West Hollywood.

Motorcycle Ship Dangerous Hollywood

People are complicated; you put two of them together and it's generally a mess, but hopefully a beautiful mess.

Beautiful You People Together

We've all seen great actors and actresses who are missing a certain chemistry. And it's not about getting along or not getting along.

Great Chemistry Missing About

I don't know what to do with myself between films. I end up doing unhealthy things like shopping or drinking. I'm pretty schizophrenic about it.

Myself End Shopping Know

Right now, I'm very healthy. I have no vices left. Except sugary breakfast cereal. And absinthe, of course.

Breakfast Now Left Right

I'm not at all competitive. I'd rather play Solitaire than ping-pong.

Play Competitive Than Rather

I'm a fan of music in general.

You get to a certain point - gratefully - when you're out of your twenties, and you realize how fleeting life is. So, it becomes important to feel as if the people in your life know exactly how you feel about them at all times.

Life You People Feel

I love to work. I absolutely love to work.

Love Work Absolutely I Love

I know a lot of incredibly, profoundly talented, skilled people that aren't given certain opportunities or any opportunities, and that aren't working.

People Know Opportunities Working

It took me a long time to realize that to walk around without a certain amount of belief in myself, to walk onto a job with my tail between my legs, wasn't behooving anyone else.

Myself Me Time Walk

I read the papers, and I watch the news a lot. I watch 'Dateline' and '48 Hours.' And I think we have a tendency to become terrified of one another, thinking that there is a serial killer that is on either side of you.

You Thinking Think News
