Alex O’Loughlin's Quotes
- I am a big fan of vampires. I've always been obsessed with the genre, and the beautiful romanticism and erotic kind of nature of the immortal being, the undead who lives on human blood.
- Losing my anonymity in this world I think is something that I find terrifying (June 16 2005).
- There were times I was thinking, 'What am I doing, this is crazy'. I was scared because I had no money and no ticket home. That is the time when everyone else packs up and leaves. But I remembered everything my grandfather taught me about the work ethic before he died. He was brought up out in the bush and his advice was 'put your head down and keep working, son, and you'll get what's coming to you'. You just push through.
- [2010] [When I was 20 I once watched a rugby game with my friends and] I'd had too much coffee and I was sort of showing off, narrating the game and being an idiot. And at halftime, my mate came up to me and said, 'Dude, you're an actor and you're not doing anything about it.'
- [2010] Do you mind? [motioning toward his pack of cigarettes] Or are you going to write in the interview, 'and then he lit a Camel?'
