Famous quotes and sentences with the word jock.
1
Steve Antin
I always wanted to be a filmmaker, but I started acting when I was 9 years old. I looked a certain part that I wasn't, really. I played, you know, a high school jock with a lot of attitude or a spoiled rich kid, and I was neither of those things. I was from a very working-class family in Van Nuys.
2
Michael Biehn
To be perfectly honest with you, I was partying a lot in school. I didn't have any good study habits from high school because I just kind of got by on being a jock.
3
Chris Brown
With dates I like to cater a girl. We do whatever she likes. If she was open to what I wanted to do, it probably wouldn't be a dull date, because I am a jock.
4
Nina Dobrev
I was kind of a jock in school. Beauty wasn't something I spent a lot of time on.
5
Grandmaster Flash
The type of mixing that was out then was blending from one record to the next or waiting for the record to go off and wait for the jock to put the needle back on.
6
Duff Goldman
Law breaking, graffiti artist, dumb jock that I am, I'm pretty socially conscious.
7
Patti Hansen
Everyone thinks I'm this jock of a woman, but I didn't play any sports. I didn't even let my kids play baseball because I was afraid they were going to get hit by balls.
8
Mark Hoppus
Thank God I never got in a fight. All of the jock dudes hated me, but all of their girlfriends thought I was nice so they wouldn't touch me. It was infuriating to them.
9
Marion Jones
I'm a jock and I'm an athlete, and that's what I love to do.
10
Kellan Lutz
I am very picky with my career. I don't need to do it for the money or the fame. I'm very choosy, which is why I haven't played the typical role that people expect to see from someone of my stature and size, as the mean jock or the preppy. It's very easy to see me like that. That's why I go against it in different roles.
