Sometimes I'd literally show up at the gym having a panic attack, and my trainer would be like, 'All right, let's just go get breakfast.' I can't give enough credit to him... he was really there for me, and not just like a trainer where it's like, 'Well, come on, man, I gotta pump you up.' He cared more about my mind and the state that I was in.

I have a personality type, but it's not like I'm like, 'Oh yeah, short and brunette. That's what I like. All the time.'

If you're proud of something, and if you're proud of your work at the end of the day, the experience, walking away, you can feel good about it; that's what you have to focus on.

Work Good Experience

Part of growing up is realizing you learn to love so many people. It's about forming those relationships and finding what will last forever.

I'm a big root beer guy.

T Root Guy

I just really like fun, cool, interesting, quirky girls. And sometimes you find that in 6'2 model bodies and sometimes they're short and brunette. All shapes and sizes - it's really about the personality. That sounds cliche, but it's so freaking true!

Dylan O'Brien

Time Cool You

When a chick has a sense of humor, there's nothing more attractive.

Dylan O'Brien

Humor Thing Thin

I'm nervous and awkward.

War Us Nervous

The thing I like a lot about acting is I'll never learn enough. I'll never know it inside and out.

Dylan O'Brien

Tin Thing Thin

I can't say enough about 'The First Time.' It was such an awesome experience. Jon Kasdan, the writer/director, was great. He's such a talented guy who's really, truly special.

Dylan O'Brien

Time Great Experience

'Teen Wolf' ending is, like, huge. I know no acting without the show, basically.

Dylan O'Brien

Teen Wolf Without

I never have an opinion about clothes and know nothing about fashion.

Dylan O'Brien

Thing Thin T

In 'Teen Wolf,' I don't really have any stunts. And if I do, it's like Stiles falls on the ground or something like that.

Dylan O'Brien

Teen Wolf UN

I feel like I'm good with girls. I understand them and am good at loving them. I've always felt like that's been natural for me.

Dylan O'Brien

Good Wit Ways

I didn't have that many friends my first few years of high school. It was very cliquey and I'm super shy, so it was hard to make friends.

Dylan O'Brien

Years Year Very

I always whip up chicken cutlets or something. Or I make chicken parm and pasta, or something like that.

Dylan O'Brien

Whip Ways Way

I'm a huge 'Indiana Jones' fan.

Dylan O'Brien

Jon Indiana Indian

My first semester of college, I'm going to sociology and English and psychology, and all I cared about was getting home and preparing for whatever audition I had.

Dylan O'Brien

Home Car Whatever

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

Work Ways Way

There's just something awesome about going all-out for 20 seconds and then stopping and getting to guzzle Pedialyte.

If you have a good thing going behind the scenes, you'll have a good thing going on-screen.

Dylan O'Brien

Good You Thing

I'm still on the ground, so I just do my thing.

Dylan O'Brien

Just going out and seeing friends, not being cooped up in my house because I don't want to get my picture taken or anything like that - I've tried to let go of that stuff a bit, accept that it's going to happen to me, and not let it prevent me from doing anything I want to do, which I have in the past.

Dylan O'Brien

You always have the nightmare of, you know, working with the guy that you've just admired forever, and then he's just totally disengaged and awful to be around.

Dylan O'Brien

I love sprinting, but I hate long-distance running. Isn't that funny?

Dylan O'Brien

Michael's great. He's everything you'd want Michael Keaton to be.

Dylan O'Brien

I just happened to step into acting. And now I can't imagine myself doing anything else.

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.

Dylan O'Brien

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 excited to see what comes my way, see what I'm interested in next, and just see what happens.

Dylan O'Brien

To me, the 'Maze Runner' fans have been so supportive of everything I have done.

Dylan O'Brien

I'm very shy. I wish more people believed me when I say that.

Dylan O'Brien

I can run pretty quick.

Dylan O'Brien

Stiles is a version of me that rarely exists in the real world. He's so confident and extroverted, and I'm much more restrained and internal.

Dylan O'Brien

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.

Dylan O'Brien

Sometimes I'd literally show up at the gym having a panic attack, and my trainer would be like, 'All right, let's just go get breakfast.' I can't give enough credit to him... he was really there for me, and not just like a trainer where it's like, 'Well, come on, man, I gotta pump you up.' He cared more about my mind and the state that I was in.

Dylan O'Brien

I haven't worked with a director who is a crazy person at all.

Dylan O'Brien

I've never looked at myself as this pop candy type.

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

The 'Maze Runner' family, we all just really genuinely love each other.

Dylan O'Brien

You have to latch onto somebody while you're working.

Dylan O'Brien

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

Dylan O'Brien

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

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

I think there's something to be said about pacing yourself.

Dylan O'Brien

It's kind of too generic, a male lead.

Dylan O'Brien

I really try to live my life a little more, in ways I would hold back from previously.

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.

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

It's a generational thing. It'd be great if some kids grew up with me as that Jason Bourne figure.

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.
