More quotes by Ben Stiller
The big-name stars . . . are always going to be playing what they've played before if they want to remain so-called A-list stars. That's why someone like Johnny Depp is doing more interesting roles not caring about the size of the movie.
Ben Stiller
I think this whole celebrity world is weird anyway. Weird and funny and kind of pathetic and yet so right for parody.
Ben Stiller
I'm just not a naturally cheery person. I'm naturally moody. I know that from people who spend a lot of time with me. People who spend a lot of time with me may not wish to spend a lot more time with me.
Ben Stiller
I wanted to be funny for people who didn't care about fashion at all, to just to kind of exist as a silly character.
Ben Stiller
Words can only hurt you if you try to read them. Don't play their game!
Ben Stiller
Nobody makes me bleed my own blood - nobody!

When I didn't have a family, I was much more of a workaholic. I still like to work, but I also want to be home with them. As you get older, you realize you need balance. If it's not fun, what's the point?
Ben Stiller
All those rumors about her being underweight are trash. She's [Calista Flockhart] gorgeous.
Ben Stiller
I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is.
Ben Stiller
Success doesn't necessarily mean happiness.
Ben Stiller
You have to stay in character in between takes.
Ben Stiller
I don't think it's ever easy to be funny. I find it easy to amuse myself with a certain sort of cynical dark humor that tends toward the meaner side, like my character in Happy Gilmore. Those kinds of characters come easily to me.
Ben Stiller
Zoolander was more of my own sensibility.
Ben Stiller
It's great to work with the people who make you laugh and who are funnier than I am.
Ben Stiller
There's a sense here in L.A. that everybody's aware of everybody all the time. It's funny but we choose it. People who are here want to be here, including me.
Ben Stiller
My own parents were touchy-feely.
