Quotes

add »
Jared: Things that go bump in the night aren't the only reasons to be afraid in this world. (edit)
Jared: (On his appearance) I'm a little self-conscious about my body. I love to wear hoodies because you can get cozy and eat some food and your belly doesn't show! (edit)
Jared: My drama coach gave me a lot of self-confidence when I wasn't sure of myself. (edit)
Jared: I've found you can be a 'successful actor' if you book two jobs out of 100 auditions. (edit)
Jared: (on “Supernatural” co-star Jensen Ackles) I have an older brother and a younger sister, and Jensen does as well, so he and I just kicked it off pretty quickly. He’s Texan, I’m Texan... You hear these horror stories about Desperate Housewives and stuff, where everybody’s arguing about trailers, but we just want to work hard and make sure our crew is happy. (edit)
