I'm a very lazy person by nature. I have to be really engaged, and then I go straight from lazy to obsessive. I couldn't study chemistry, but I could memorize all the books for Dungeons and Dragons.

The courage that those guys have is always captivating to me. Jon Favreau authorshipbegincaptivate share on social
