Quotes

Austin (On why he was on crutches summer of 2006): I broke my leg skateboarding while getting ready for the show. I tried to keep it a secret, I told them I twisted my ankle which was a massive lie. I was worried that if I was hurt they would try to get someone else so I just lied. I healed enough in time to shoot the surfing scenes. (edit)
Austin (On David Mich, the creator of John From Cincinnati): David is like nobody I have ever seen or worked with before. I have this incredible respect for him and at the same time anger for him. He is so creative and brilliant but also so demanding. I think a good way to describe David would be to call him a “Gentle Dictator” -- he really is both sides of the coin. (edit)
Austin (On Day After Tomorrow co-star Jake Gyllenhaal): I've learned a ton from Jake. He's a really sharp guy. He told me everything about acting, the business, girls, life. (edit)
