More quotes by Andy Richter
I briefly considered doing Edgar Allan Poe and just swearing a lot.
Andy Richter
It is rare, with people who are on television or celebrities or actors - it's rare to go to their house for a party and find they cooked. That's rare. Usually people don't cook for their own parties, and they don't buy their own gifts. There are people that do that, and that is a special thing. Those kind of little human touches are nice.
Andy Richter
But I don't read a lot of fiction. I prefer the nonfiction stuff.
Andy Richter
I feel like I'm a showbiz professional. This is my job, it's going to have ups and downs. I'm lucky to be able to do this for a living, but I also do feel like I don't anticipate changing the world. All I can really do is do a good job when I'm hired to do a job, and be happy at home.
Andy Richter
The thing that's important for me to focus on is the balancing of the tension between satisfying myself and satisfying an audience, and making something that I think is good and funny, worthwhile, small-i important, versus something that's going to do well.
Andy Richter
If you start to just aim for what the audience wants to hear, you're already hamstrung because you don't have any freedom.
Andy Richter
At a very basic level, I think television exists for game shows, and I think it always will.

It's funny, because Arrested Development is tied to Andy Richter in a few different ways. For me personally, after I did Andy Richter, one of the next things I did was a show called Quintuplets for a season for Fox, and this was while Arrested Development was on. I used to go over and hang out on their set.
Andy Richter
There are naked people in boots on a mountain top firing guns.
Andy Richter
I watch mediocre shows that have been on for three or four seasons, and feel angry at them.
Andy Richter
If somebody's looking at pictures of naked people and you go, 'Oh I don't want to see that,' you're lying. Cause naked people are always interesting. Always. Whether they're beautiful, or naked or 500 pounds.
Andy Richter
Outside from with my older brother - and this would have stopped about age 12 - I haven't been in a physical fight in my life. We used to punch each other, but that was little kid punching. You're too scared to hit anybody really.
Andy Richter
It's a very nice thing to have a baby.
Andy Richter
I never just sit down and see what's on TV anymore. And also, I hate almost everything, so that keeps you reading magazines and doing crossword puzzles or whatever.
Andy Richter
I'm not that professional.
Andy Richter
My ability to notice that kind of thing, the sanctity of the bubble that you create, has not been so good in a way, in that I notice it concurrently with actually doing the thing. I always notice it in retrospect.
Andy Richter
Well, I refer to Celebrity Jeopardy as the short-bus Jeopardy, because it is a lot easier. Like, there was a whole column basically naming stores in New York.
Andy Richter
Anything that I read, I read because I'm interested in it.
Andy Richter
One of the big tensions in my life is that I have known the stresses of financial hardship since I was a little kid, and it is the cancer for which I am seeking a cure.
Andy Richter
No, I don't know any Emily Dickinson poems!
