Fashion is so over the top.
Ben Stiller
I was a bad student. I liked archaeology actually, I was interested in maybe becoming an archaeologist but I was such a bad student and had such bad grades that I wasn't going to get into any really good college so I fell back on acting.

When I was growing up, This is Spinal Tap [1984] was the ultimate comedy, and it was the kind of thing I wanted to do. But you get to a point with parody where you can't go much further because ultimately it's feeding off of somebody else's creativity.
Ben Stiller
I don't think know if anything's going to translate anywhere. You're making a movie, you hope it's going to be funny, you can't think about how it's going to go over.
Ben Stiller
Nobody makes me bleed my own blood - nobody!
Ben Stiller
Success doesn't necessarily mean happiness.

A eugoogoolizer...one who speaks at funerals...Or did you think I was too stupid to know what a eugoogooly was?

Oh, you can milk just about anything with nipples.

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.

All those rumors about her being underweight are trash. She's [Calista Flockhart] gorgeous.
Ben Stiller
I don't have a burning desire to be taken seriously as an actor. I don't have a master plan in that way.
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
Paul is Starsky, and I met him before shooting. He was very kind and encouraged us to go with what we wanted to do. It was very sweet to see them back with the car after 25 years.
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
I think people will be curious to see what I can do as a dramatic actor.
Ben Stiller
Zoolander was more of my own sensibility.
Ben Stiller
I enjoy the work I do in comedies. It's a valid test of your creative abilities.
Ben Stiller
I've been to Japan but I've never been to China, I'd love to go to China. I don't know, I like to go to places that are remote. So, I think I'd like to do that more. And just sort of also explore not having a structured work life someday, to have more free time to sort of see what happens.
Ben Stiller
I have a lot of nervous energy. Work is my best way of channelling that into something productive unless I want to wind up assaulting the postman or gardener.
Ben Stiller
When you have kids you want to be able to go to movies and take the family too, and actually all enjoy it together. I don't think there are that many great, live action family movies that everybody can enjoy.
