Seth Numrich quotes:

Working with Al Pacino was an amazing experience. He's such an amazing guy. He's an incredible performer and actor - and, aside from that, just a generous human being.

Every show you do, you have to do research, and I love to dig into things. I learned about World War II by doing 'Anne Frank.'

Math was always hard for me, but my dad would come up with ways of making it fun. I remember playing 'Number Munchers' on our old Mac... That counts as math class, right?

Next to acting, being in the great outdoors is my biggest passion.

Boxing is really an art form. It might just look like two people beating each other up, but when you look closer, it's actually quite beautiful and interesting.

When I was six, someone in my family gave me a yellow pencil holder that had my name printed on it. I still have it, and when I'm doing table work in rehearsal, I use it to carry my highlighters and other writing utensils. I love it.

During my childhood, I played just about every sport imaginable, which became less feasible at Juilliard... Although I remember our annual dodge-ball game as a highlight. The Juilliard 'Fighting Penguins' are a force to be reckoned with.

Boxing is a lot of preparation and then improvising, so there are parallels to being an actor.

Theatre has been a part of my life since before I can remember - my dad is also an actor and a director and a storyteller who lives and works in the Twin Cities; my mom is a nurse practitioner, but she also grew up doing theatre - so, it has always been a part of my experience.

Theater has been my way of learning about everything.

If I could go back to my first year of acting school, I'd probably say: 'Relax. Stop taking yourself so seriously.'

A dear friend of mine always brings a pineapple instead of flowers when he comes to a show. I love it.

I don't think there should be a hierarchy of what is valid in the arts.

If you think you're in shape, try boxing. You'll discover that you are not. It's the most physically challenging thing I've ever attempted, but I love it and I want to keep up some of the training.
