Robert Downey Jr. Spread Legs On December’s Esquire

Robert Downey Jr. Esquire December

Robert Downey Jr. sits spread eagle in tight business pants on the December issue of Esquire.

You gotta love a Robert Downey Jr. Q and A. He’s one of our most lovable neurotics and thankfully Esquire decided to round up a few of his choiciest quotes in a nifty slideshow. Here are some of our favorites below:

On his childhood:

“It was a German delicatessen where, if you were fifteen years old but said that you went to UCLA — and paid cash — you could buy Spaten lager and Grolsch. We would wind up hammered in Douglas Park — then we would enjoy the environs of Jack in the Box afterwards.”

On getting over drug and alcohol addiction:

“My whole story — there’s such immense satisfaction to see past that. I found my way out of the woods by a subtler and subtler trail of bread crumbs — now I’m just in the business of business, and the business of my life, and the mind-blowing opportunities — and if nothing else, dude, I really love the way these ceilings look.”

On procreating:

“The big unspoken thing here is that we intend to have a family… Hell, yeah. Speaking of artifacts. The ultimate artifact of our love. In a onesie.”
