More quotes by 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
There's always an element of fear that you need to work a lot until people get sick and tired of you or finally figure out that you're a fraud after all!
Ben Stiller
The cliches are that it's the most generic Starsky and Hutch plot you can find.
Ben Stiller
As a kid I had dreams about being successful, thinking it would be cool. Then, when I was in my 20s, I really thought I had it much more figured out than I do now.
Ben Stiller
When we were visiting New York City, I took my kids to the same playground where I went growing up. It was fun to feel that connection of having gone there as a kid and being there as a parent.
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'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
If you look at my eyes when I'm dancing, you'll see that glazed look.
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
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.
Ben Stiller
You have to stay in character in between takes.
Ben Stiller
I don't play hockey at all. I'm not comfortable on skates.
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
Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty.
Ben Stiller
Oh, you can milk just about anything with nipples.
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
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
It's what I wanted to do with my life. Not necessarily just direct Jim Carrey movies, but to direct and act and write and create and along the way discover what it is that I'm about.
Ben Stiller
I don't think the public is dying to see me necessarily be funny all the time.
Ben Stiller
I love New York. I was sad, depressed and incredibly moved by our fellow countrymen and what they've done. I wanted to give people a chance to see something funny, have a distraction.
