I'm not anxious, I'm high-strung. I just decided that's the difference for me.
I'm completely neurotic, totally anxious and high-strung all the time.
I'm not really high-strung now, but I was a very high-strung child.
If I spread myself too thin, I'm not a good actor, I'm not a good mother, and I'm just really high-strung - and everybody hates me.
Dad couldn't train me. He was too high-strung, like, 'Throw your jab!' and I'd start crying.
I played maybe one and a half games of Little League. The whole atmosphere of anxious parents and more anxious children was just too much for me.
What I absolutely can't do is just sit around, that drives me crazy. I go nuts! I'm far too nervous, too high strung to sit around. It's not my thing; I can't deal with it!
I am high-strung and high-energy. My blood pressure is always high, and I am always excited to go to work.
I'm wired to be neurotic and loud and high-strung.
I can be laid back, but I'm pretty high strung.
I don't know about living on an automatic pilot, but I've had times where I've decided to just test myself and my mettle, and for no good reason other than it's what life is. Even before I was acting, I had, like, one day in high school I decided to just show them my pajamas, just for no good reason.
I have to admit I can be pretty high strung and tightly wound.
If I was very high-strung, I probably would've knocked a few people out by now, and, you know, you would have seen a bad side of me that probably, hopefully, I'll never show.
I had been playing a lot of chess and I wasn't really enjoying it, so I decided to go to college to see what else is out there for me. But after about six or seven months away from the game, I just decided that the whole college life wasn't for me and that's why I decided to come back.
I'm not like Woody Allen like, "Oh my god what's going to happen? Ooh Ooh Oohhh." I'm just high-strung. So I do need to do a lot of stuff.
I wanted to be a filmmaker, actually, when I was in high school and college. But I just decided it would be more expensive to do, so I sort of decided music would be more fun.
I find that things don't bother me as much. If I had a bad day on set, it sort of just rolls of my back in a way that it didn't before. So that's where the biggest difference is, stuff that used to get under my skin or that I would worry about or be anxious about just isn't a problem. So in some ways, having a child has been very liberating. I found it very liberating.
