Quotes

add »
Paul: I don't know anything about comic books. I've never seen a Star Wars in my life. (edit)
Paul: When I was courting my first girlfriend, I was about 14 years old, and I sent a five-foot teddy bear to her house. It was so huge. But I had the wrong address and it was this whole mix-up. I wanted it to be this big surprise and they ended up calling her and saying, "We're trying to deliver this teddy bear and we don't know where it is." It was so embarrassing but she thought it was the most romantic thing ever because I was only 14 and what 14 year old does that? (edit)
Paul: I went to this private, all boys Catholic school and I got kicked out of there because I didn't jive well with them. Then I went to a public high school and I didn't really jive there either. So then I went to another school and then I graduated. So I never really got to establish my clique. (edit)
Paul: (On changing his professional name from Wasilewski to Wesley.) Wasilewski was too hard to pronounce! I asked my family's permission to change it, and it's really helped my career. (edit)

I think he's a really good actor who should be on some network drama show. He's also a good looking guy. I love those eyebrows of his. Keep up the good work Paul! Hope to see you on big screen one day.
