Hammer: "I support myself. My wife and I together - it's all our household. I'm really proud of that."

Hammer: "I don't think I should tell you what to do, nor should the government. As long as you enjoy your own personal liberties and don't infringe on the liberties of others, I don't care."

Hammer: "I think a primal role of a man in a relationship is to protect his woman."

Hammer: "It's something that I think I'm going to have to fight against for most of my career, for people to take me seriously as an actor as opposed to a good-looking guy. It's not what I want to be known as."

Hammer: "I like reading. I just hate school."

Hammer: "I like the idea of marriage. I like the idea that I have a best friend. It's just really comforting. I remember being single and trying to date, and it was just stressful and hard. It wasn't fun."

Hammer: "I know books, and I know how to string words together—it doesn’t mean I know how to speak about the things that matter most to me."

Hammer: "I have about as much control over how I look as the guy who's short and looks more like a character actor - we both have the same drive to be actors and we both have the same drive to assume these different characters, it's just harder for me to get the chance because they look at me and say, 'Oh, he's this type,' and they stamp me."

Hammer: "I never grew up reading or fantasizing about fairy tales. I was always too busy, like, outside being a kid."

Hammer: "I'd rather enjoy meals, order bottles of red wine and eat creme brulee at the end of dinner. Then, when they call you for a photo shoot, you just go, 'Okay, time to hit the treadmill.'"

Hammer: "I try to do romantic gestures all the time."

Hammer: "Yeah, I mean I've definitely had a bunch of action scripts sent to me, but again I'm a stickler for directors. If it's like an action flick with a great director then it's like 'Oh let's look at this thing,' but if it's just like a shoot-em'-up with a first time director. I don't know if that's the trajectory I want to take with what I'm doing."

Hammer: "I'm half Jewish, but no one believes me because my looks lean a little WASP-y... It's sometimes hard for me to get the roles I'm drawn to."

Hammer: "My very first kiss happened when I was 6, underneath some desks during 'nap time', but my first real kiss happened when I was 15 in the parking lot at a Mexican food restaurant."

Hammer: "I don't think Obama is trying to take our guns, and I don't think we have to fight the government to keep them."
