I don't need a compass to tell me which way the wind shines !
Ben Stiller
I think people will be curious to see what I can do as a dramatic actor.
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.
Ben Stiller
Jim Carrey, a comic genius, has a harder time overcoming the public's desire for him to be funny simply because he's so good at it.
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.

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'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'm very interested in the early American history, the time when the country came together.
Ben Stiller
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
Nobody makes me bleed my own blood - nobody!
Ben Stiller
I don't play hockey at all. I'm not comfortable on skates.
Ben Stiller
I enjoy the work I do in comedies. It's a valid test of your creative abilities.
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
Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty.
Ben Stiller
I don't even want to think of myself as an actor because it's such an insecure place to go.
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
All those rumors about her being underweight are trash. She's [Calista Flockhart] gorgeous.
Ben Stiller
You have to stay in character in between takes.
Ben Stiller
First of all, the first cut of the movie was like three and a half hours and I walked away going, 'Wow, I know there's like twenty minutes that I can cut - ' when I first saw it 'But I don't know after that.' The first time I put up then in front of people I was like, 'Oh, my God, I can take that out and that out and that out.'
Ben Stiller
I don't know what that weid fantasy is that makes people go, Oh, you must have had a great childhood.
