Jay Ryan’s 5 most popular quotes

  • I was a very hyper-active child and my parents just didn’t know what to do with me.
  • I felt more comfortable playing other people than being myself, when I was a kid. And then, the tables turned. Through my performances, I’ve become more comfortable with who I am, and then I just bring more of myself into the people that I play.
  • I always seem to get parts where I play the sports professional – and that’s not me at all!
  • The network made me join Twitter. I am very scared of social media, and I don’t know how to use it, so it’s kind of trial and error.
  • My family aren’t performers. They’re just normal people. They don’t understand this entertainment world. They just think it’s mental. They have no idea what I’m doing in America.
