More quotes by Albert Brooks
When I die, if the word 'thong' appears in the first or second sentence of my obituary, I've screwed up.
Albert Brooks
When I was younger, I wasn't concentrating on good days. I was managing a career and trying to have a good year. It would always 'lead' to something, which never leads to anything except death, where everything leads to. And then as I got older, and then I had my kids and everything, I began to appreciate a great Wednesday.
Albert Brooks
You make friends with older people and you always feel young no matter what.
Albert Brooks
You always got to be happy when somebody likes what you do. It's stupid not to be happy.
Albert Brooks

Albert Brooks
Wouldn't this be a great world if insecurity and desperation made us more attractive?
Albert Brooks

Albert Brooks
In the beginning of any career, in every job, people are always forcing you to the middle.
Albert Brooks
Once you sign on as an actor, you know, you don't go to the editing room, you don't see how they cut, you don't see how they score, you don't see how they cast the rest of the movie.
Albert Brooks
I've always been the king of silence. I've always been a minimalist comedian. I've taken my influence from Jack Benny, who was the king of that I've always done 'less is more.'
Albert Brooks
The biggest waste of brainpower is to want to change something that's not changeable.
Albert Brooks
How many people didn't get a part who would have been better than the person who got the part? Thousands.
Albert Brooks
I'm not a big fan of the post-Armageddon stories, where Denzel Washington is walking around in a torn coat.
Albert Brooks
One of the things I like about a character: I always think it's fascinating when a character can turn on a dime and go from one emotion to another. I like watching that.
Albert Brooks
'Drive' came to me because the casting director knew my manager and called and said, 'You've always talked to me about Albert wanting to play the heavy. I think he should read this.' My ears just perked up.
Albert Brooks
You know, I became a director out of necessity. I was writing comedies, and I couldn't find anybody to deliver it correctly.
