I'll never be, at least in my mind, as cool as Jason Bourne.

It's really easy sometimes to get comfortable on a set and get into the groove and think it's all make-believe so nothing bad can happen.
Dylan O'Brien
-
I've always wanted to do action movies.

It's a generational thing. It'd be great if some kids grew up with me as that Jason Bourne figure.
Dylan O'Brien
-
I think there's something to be said about pacing yourself.

With TV, you just have to finish the days and get the episodes out. And it's always going to be an impossible schedule. That's the funny thing with TV that not a lot of people realize.

Having a connection and chemistry with a director is really key.

We were walking through Petco Park after a signing, and this girl plowed through security and grabbed onto my neck and started pulling. Her grip was so impressively strong that this huge security guard was struggling to get her off of me. I was like, 'Whoa. That's kind of crazy.'
Dylan O'Brien
-
I really just want to work with good directors and learn as much as I possibly can.

-
The physical part was one thing. Whatever - I broke my face; that'll heal. The mental aspect was the biggest shock to the system. You just don't know how to experience stuff like that. You don't have any control over it, either. It's just how your body and brain reacts to something like that happening.
Dylan O'Brien
-
My heroes are guys like Tom Hanks, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Matt Damon. These are amazing actors with amazing careers that every actor should aspire to. I'm not saying I'm going to get anywhere close. It's not going to be an easy feat. I'm just in awe of their careers.

I'll always be reading a good book. I don't have, like, specific genre tastes or anything or things that I kind of get hooked on, reading genre books or anything like that. It's just really anything anyone kind of recommends or is going around or I hear is good.
Dylan O'Brien
-
I'm a big root beer guy.

When I was younger, I used to just want to please everybody and not want to be an issue or not be considered a diva. I've just grown up and realized you have to look out for yourself and stick up for yourself, and there's nothing wrong with that.

I always assume that a chick is not into me. So it's never natural for me to be like, 'Check out that girl in the corner. She's waiting for me to come up to her. I'm gonna to work my six-step process...'
Dylan O'Brien
-
When a chick has a sense of humor, there's nothing more attractive.

-
It makes it easier to adapt a book that is popular with kids because of how excited they are about the project; you don't get the criticisms you would get with other projects.
Dylan O'Brien
-
It's honestly just pressure that I put on myself when I'm working. It's just how I operate.
Dylan O'Brien
-
I'm a huge 'Indiana Jones' fan.
Dylan O'Brien
-
I always whip up chicken cutlets or something. Or I make chicken parm and pasta, or something like that.
Dylan O'Brien
-
Honestly, man, I'm not somebody who wants the celebrity. I could really care less about that stuff. I know everyone says it, but I get overwhelmed by it all sometimes.
Dylan O'Brien
-
In regard to performing, it couldn't be funnier that I ended up being an actor, because I'm really shy. Unless I'm really comfortable with a person.
Dylan O'Brien
-
I learned a lot about a traumatic situation and what it does to you. It really brings you closer to your family and your loved ones.
Dylan O'Brien

I was in school, but I wasn't into school. I wasn't doing what I wanted to be doing in school, which was film studies. That was what I intended on doing, but I didn't go away to a university because I wanted to stay in L.A. and audition while I took classes, so I elected to go to a community college and just take G.E. courses. It was terrible.
