More quotes by Ben Stiller
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.

Oh, you can milk just about anything with nipples.

Ben Stiller
I would like to do more dramas when I find a good role that will allow me to politely upset people's expectations of me as a comic actor.
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
I don't think the public is dying to see me necessarily be funny all the time.
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.
Ben Stiller
I think people will be curious to see what I can do as a dramatic actor.
Ben Stiller
All those rumors about her being underweight are trash. She's [Calista Flockhart] gorgeous.

Nobody makes me bleed my own blood - nobody!
