I was very driven in high school. I worked a bunch of odd jobs. I never partied. I never drank. I was just a theater geek who was obsessed with movies.
Aaron Paul
Man, Amy Ryan. I have geeked out so hard for her - to her face! There aren't a lot of people that can cross those lines of drama and comedy so seamlessly as Amy Ryan.
Abbi Jacobson
Anything that I love, I love to the extreme. I'm obsessive. If it's 'Star Wars,' if it's 'Transformers,' if it's the Flyers, I geek out.
Adam F. Goldberg
In high school, I was so obsessed with the movie that I started an actual 'Highlander' club with my two best friends, Mike Levy and David Sirota. What began as a few geeks hitting each other with swords we made in woodshop soon became a school-wide game with 20 people playing. It became so disruptive that the administration had to shut it down.
I'm not a geek about equipment, I just know what I like.
Adam Jones
I think there's a tendency to think geeks and nerds are just sweet guys that were picked on, but that hasn't been my experience. I'm certainly not like that, in a lot of ways.
Adam McKay
My wife is pretty geeky and will occasionally quote 'Anchorman' at me.
Being a geek is all about learning the inventories of things.
Adam Savage
I wouldn't call myself a geek, but I do sometimes teach Mommy and Daddy stuff about computers. And I do watch TV, but only informative programmes like the news and documentaries.
Adora Svitak
I'm such a geek, and have always been a real nerd.
Aisha Tyler
I'm still a geek on the inside, that's the important thing.
Al Yankovic
In many ways, products are a reflection of their founders, and I consider myself a geek. But aside from that, Imgur just organically evolved into the epicenter of geek culture.
Alan Schaaf
For millennials, being a geek is a positive thing, and we see people proudly self-identifying themselves as geeks.
Geek culture is all about being super passionate about your interests and not afraid to express them, even if your interests are unpopular.
I think it's interesting to know that being a geek isn't the negative thing that it used to be.
I'm a geeky actor, in the way that I like the craft of acting.
Alan Tudyk
I was always really geeky about design and buildings. Always into architecture as a kid.
Aldis Hodge
People - especially the geeks who created it - have tended to look at the Internet as something that's hermetically sealed: there's the Internet and the rest of the world. But that's not how people want to use the Internet. They want to use it as a way of better navigating the real world.
Alex Steffen
By the time I was 10, I was doing plays for Phoenix theater. My first lead role was as the Stinky Cheese Man. I got a taste of the limelight, and I just couldn't stop. It was a way for me to be the artistic, geeky kid that I was, and not get beat up.
Alexandra Shipp
I think I'm probably quite geeky in a lot of ways. I'm pretty into books, kind of obsessive about that.
Alice Eve
This has become a bugbear of mine: the difference between geek and nerd.
We need the best and the brightest thinkers, strategists, coders, surveillance experts, tech geeks, and disruptors to utilize all of the tools we have available to us to build the world that we want to see. A world where black lives matter. A world where all lives matter.
I'm such a geek, I know all about mythology and I don't know Marc Jacobs.
Yeah, I'm a geek. I read sci-fi and I watch sci-fi films. I love my computer and I love to fix it. I'm a total nerd. I literally am a 12-year-old geeky boy trapped in a 32-year-old woman's body.
My high school experience was kind of like 'Mean Girls.' It was very much like a bad B movie. 'This is where the jocks sit, and this is where the cheerleaders sit.' And I never really fit in. I guess I was sort of a theatre geek, but the activity that I was most invested in was speech and debate.
Being a sci-fi geek myself and going to movies all my life, I came to the conclusion that there were really two camps of how robots have been designed. It's either the tin man, which is a human with metal skin, or it's an R2D2.
This idea of the geek or the nerd, all that person really is - and I would consider myself one - is someone who is not ashamed of liking what they enjoy.
I think there are rock stars within every subgenre, and for people who are obsessed with musical theater Sutton Foster and Audra MacDonald are like Beyonce to them. I'm sure the a cappella world has their own version of that, and that exists in every geeky subculture.
I stole comic books from my brother when I was a kid, but I was never like an avid fan. I can't claim to be like a comic book geek.
Among my friends, I am still that guy who is just out of college and nobody treats me like a geek.
I'm a bit of a geek when it comes to historical events, so to get the chance to research our family history using our DNA was too good an opportunity to pass up.
I'm not gonna lie: I was not a big 'Star Wars' geek.
We were film geeks. We devoured everything: really obscure art films, foreign films. We were the kind of guys that lived at the Cinematheque. But at the end of the day, your favorite movies are like everybody else's favorite movies. Because those are the movies that become a touch point where you can connect to other people.
My friends are all geeks. And many of them are scientists who love playing outside as much as I do.
I don't actually watch that much TV, but I was obsessed with 'Dawson's Creek' growing up. And 'Freaks and Geeks.' And '8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter.'
I'm such a theater geek. Most of my friends are in this community, and it's really important for me to keep doing it. It takes the ego out of acting, whereas movies tend to involve it.
I was just this little theater geek. I joined the drama program my freshman year. I read the morning announcements my sophomore year. I didn't have to eat in the cafeteria with everyone else because my drama teacher was cool. Everybody knew who I was, and that's all I ever wanted as a theater kid.
I was scouted at the age of 10 by a Hollywood agent. I was a really shy, geeky-looking thing, and started in the industry by doing 'extra' work on films.
I'm just a geeky, goofy person.
When I was younger and really interested in acting, I would look at all the women on TV, and even the ones who were supposed to be 'geeks' or 'less attractive,' they all looked similar because they were extremely attractive and their bodies were all a certain way.
Activists and geeks, standing together, are demonstrating powers beyond the reach of government control.
When I was little, people like Talking Heads were on the radio. There was something geeky yet groundbreaking about them.
When I started this character, it was me being 12 years old again. We would have other wrestlers come to our promos, and I'd geek out over them and show my excitement. I would just grab them and not let go.
I was quite academic, quite geeky when I was a kid. I was more interested in going to school than I was in becoming a film star or something.
I was really quite geeky at school. At one point, I wanted to be prime minister or a mathematician.
From the outside, there's a perception Silicon Valley is full of really young, geeky guys. The reality is there are lots of different types of people there.
I'm pretty much a documents reporter. I'm a public records geek.
If your culture doesn't like geeks, you are in real trouble.
I'm a geek.
I remember being unbelievable bummed when 'Freaks and Geeks' was canceled.
