Christopher Masterson quotes
- I don't really think about my future. I don't really worry about anything. I just try not to spend all my money.
- I have three brothers and a sister. One older and three younger. My oldest brother Danny plays Hyde on 'That '70s Show,' and my younger brother Jordan and my sister Allanah act as well, so we're a bit of an acting family.
- When I was 11, I burned a field down by mistake. It was an empty field, probably about 10 acres in size. I and my friend were lighting firecrackers, and we ended up burning down the entire field. We got found out, and I think I was grounded for about three months.
- I like many different kinds of music. My favorite band is Radiohead, and I'm also a giant Jeff Buckley fan.
- Mostly I've been inspired by my mother. She is extremely driven and always makes every endeavor sound exciting. I think most of the things I've accomplished are a result of knowing her.
