My hypothesis is that conservative Republicans have very clear values, and when you have that, you’re simply more relaxed.
My wife and I have mellowed out as we’ve gone along. With the first baby, when she cried, we’d think, Oh my God, what do we do now? But with Finley, our fourth – he’s the easiest baby ever, and I think that has a lot to do with the fact that we’re much more relaxed these days.
Everything you need to get that relaxed driving that brings consistency only comes with practice.

I’m often very relaxed when I’m on the wire. There may be some tears because this is a dream of mine.

Behind my door at home, that’s when I’m relaxed, and that’s when I can allow the emotions or whatever – to feel just what I want to feel – so a lot of people don’t know me in that respect.

I am quite a relaxed person out of the car, but in the car I am aggressive, I never give up, I fight to the end and I try 100% all the time.

I think if you’re stressed, it shows in every part of you; how you carry yourself, which then affects your pose, how you hold your face, which then makes you look stressed and so nothing looks relaxed.

I feel my most relaxed when I apply myself to a task.
People call me Joey all the time. I take it as a compliment. There’s no point in correcting them. But I’m much more even-keeled and subdued and relaxed than Joey Tribbiani.

After I got my gold medal, I thought, ‘This isn’t just me. It belongs to my team, my friends, my family, the fans, everybody who’s impacted my life – this is our gold medal.’ So when someone asks to try it on, I’m like, ‘Sure, why not?’ I might be a little too relaxed about it, but why would I keep it to myself?
I used to be tense or nervous before heats. But I’ve learned to get rid of the negative stuff and just stay relaxed and positive – and it seems to be working for me.
When regulations restricting competition are relaxed, nobody’s market share is protected. If telephone companies can offer video programming, cable revenue will surely drop.

I’m an atheist, but I’m very relaxed about it. I don’t preach my atheism, but I have a huge amount of respect for people like Richard Dawkins who do.
You get around people who see us away from the track, and it’s a pretty big contrast. You’re still competitive, and you still want to win everything, but I think in the car, we’re focused and passionate all the time. We get outside the car, and we’re a lot more relaxed and easygoing, enjoying things away from racing.
It’s a relaxed intensity I’ve got to live my life in.

I think I’m becoming more relaxed in front of a camera. I suppose I’ll always feel slightly more at home on stage. It’s more of an actor’s medium. You are your own editor, nobody else is choosing what is being seen of you.
When you’re relaxed, you are more decisive.
I love boxing, MMA, and hiking with my dog. I work out 3 times a week, and on my off days, I do yoga to keep my body relaxed and to stretch.

I have always been more relaxed around comedy.
I used to pre-rehearse everything and then bring my pre-rehearsed performance to the set. Now, I’m learning to let it happen in the moment. American actors are much better at that than British actors. If I knew how to trust myself, I would have been much more relaxed.
I will say that my style sense is very mercurial. There are days when I love to be all comfy, relaxed in casual wear, and there are days when I go all matching, matching.

I can’t imagine what it would be like to write in a relaxed state. I’m going to be writing some stories for my own interest. I want to experiment with different things and see if I can approach writing with much less control and in a better psychological state. It will be like breaking out of a straitjacket.
I do explore the city if I have the time for it, but normally, I would rather stay relaxed at home. London can be a stressful place because it’s crowded and it’s a big city.
The basic thing is that I want to do the best work possible, and I can only do that if I’m relaxed and have a lot of energy. And that can only come from taking time off.
After moving to L.A., I’ve started to appreciate the relaxed American look.
