Quotes by Aaron Johnson
I don't like to be me. I'm not so comfortable being me on screen because then I'd be a presenter. I'm not Jimmy Fallon.
I can't think of anything worse than trying to schmooze someone with the idea that you're an actor.
I just tried to stay focused, stay in the game (after the throwing error). We need this conference win.
I'm constantly trying to find something that's different from me, whereas some actors do the same thing, again and again. That's not for me.
It's funny because if you ever ask anyone in England to try and do a Beatles accent, no one knows what they really sound like. If you ask anyone in America, they would try and give it a go. English people just know their songs.
