Biography of Chris Evans
I've been able to make films over the past 10 years but still maintain my anonymity.
Tags: Able, Films, PastI've managed to do movies and still keep a lifestyle where I can go to ballgames, go to a grocery store like everybody else.
Tags: Else, Keep, MoviesIf women feel they are able to go from partner to partner without feeling emotionally invested and ultimately hurt, they should go for it.
Tags: Feeling, Hurt, WomenIf you want to be around in 10 years you've got to do something to differentiate yourself from the pack.
Tags: Pack, YourselfLook at pictures of me growing up. It wasn't always the way it is now. It was a bumpy road for me.
Tags: Growing, Pictures, RoadWhen you do one movie at a time, if one goes crazy and becomes successful, your life changes. But you can step back and catch your breath.
Tags: Crazy, Life, TimeYou know, the reward for 'Captain America' is amazing. It's always fun to see a giant spectacle film and see the fun stuff - the special effects.
Tags: Amazing, America, FunI didn't realize - you think you are doing a movie but then you realize it's a Columbia Pictures movie so it's probably going to have some publicity. Then you see a billboard and it's like, 'God! I'm on a billboard!' It doesn't hit all at once, it kind of unravels itself and it's still unraveling.
Tags: God, Once, RealizeI don't know any form of art or entertainment that can affect people the way movies can. I know it sounds ridiculous, but they can change your world. They can change your views.
Tags: Art, Change, MoviesI hate myself in interviews. All of a sudden, you stop and you're like, 'Chris, how dare you?' I don't live in Darfur. I have both legs. But you can't walk around all the time being like, 'I'm so grateful I'm not in Darfur.'
Tags: Grateful, Hate, TimeI like girls who are self-deprecating. I like girls who make fun of themselves. If you can't poke fun at yourself, what are you? I just want someone with a good soul. That's about it. The rest I'm really flexible on.
Tags: Fun, Good, YourselfI'm a big fan of working out on my own. I put my headphones on and I'm pretty good at self-motivating. At the end of the day, I enjoy it. Once I'm there and once I get going, I tend to love it, and I feel good.
Tags: End, Good, LoveI've been lucky enough - well, maybe unlucky enough - to have had a lot of friends who have had their ups and downs. And for an actor, that's good. Life experience in any regard is good. So I've seen a lot and I've had my own experiences.
Tags: Experience, Good, LifeIf your goal is to be the biggest movie star in the world, a 10-movie contract is gold. It was never my goal. Up until now, I made movies - and I have a nice house, a nice car. I'm fortunate, happy and grateful. Life is good.
Tags: Good, Life, MoviesIt seems like the studios are either making giant blockbusters, or really super-small indies. And the mid-level films I grew up on, like 'Back to the Future' and all those John Hughes movies, the studios aren't doing. It's hard to get them on their feet.
Tags: Future, Hard, MoviesThe Internet is a big place where a lot of people can voice their opinions, and my mother chooses to pick fights with random people from all over the world who don't have the nicest things to say about me.
Tags: Big, Mother, PlaceWhat do I geek out about? What am I? Hmmm. I love movies. I watch movies. I like big, sweeping epics, like Ed Zwick stuff: 'The Last Samurai,' 'Legends of the Fall,' 'Blood Diamond,' 'Glory.'

I always say that the times in my life when I've been happiest are the times when I've seen, like, a sunset.
Tags: Life, Seen, TimesAnyone who's had a tattoo knows once you get your first one, as you're walking out the door, you're planning the next.
Tags: Anyone, Door, OnceThe comic book world is so dangerous, you know what I mean? You say one thing and people - they're ravenous - they are very opinionated fans. But they're great fans.
Tags: Book, Great, MeanI can handle the craziness some of the time, maybe most of the time. But I know I can't handle it all of the time.
Tags: Craziness, Maybe, TimeFor a long time all I wanted for Christmas were books about outdoor survival. I was convinced that the woods were calling me. I camped a lot, I took classes. At 18, I told myself if I don't live in the woods by myself by the time I'm 25, I have failed.
Tags: Time, WantedI decided to make 'Captain America' because I realized I wasn't doing the film because it terrified me. You can't make decisions based on fear.
Tags: America, Decisions, FearI swear to God, if you saw me when I am by myself in the woods, I'm a lunatic. I sing, I dance.
Tags: Dance, God, SingWhat if I couldn't handle people's opinions of me? I know that shouldn't dictate a person's degree of peace or happiness in life, but the problem is, I chose a business saturated in judgment.
Tags: Happiness, Life, PeaceThe point is that when I see a sunset or a waterfall or something, for a split second it's so great, because for a little bit I'm out of my brain, and it's got nothing to do with me. I'm not trying to figure it out, you know what I mean? And I wonder if I can somehow find a way to maintain that mind stillness.
Tags: Great, Mean, MindWhen I found out I had to take off my shirt in 'Teen' movie, I panicked and hit the gym. I was like, 'It's going to be on film, documented, for my children to see. I can't be 140 pounds. I need to put on a little bit of muscle.'
Tags: Children, Put, TeenBut my happiness in this world - my level of peace - is never going to be dictated by acting.
Tags: Acting, Happiness, PeaceFor the youth, the indignation of most things will just surge as each birthday passes.
Tags: Birthday, Passes, YouthI am just enjoying my youth but I want to settle down eventually.
Tags: Eventually, Settle, YouthI love acting. It's my playground, it let's me explore. But my happiness in this world - my level of peace - is never going to be dictated by acting.
Tags: Happiness, Love, PeaceI weep at everything.
