More quotes by Bill Murray
Here's the thing, you just have to drive a lot faster, and if you don't get there, we're both fired.
Bill Murray
There's only a couple times when fame is ever helpful. Sometimes you can get into a restaurant where the kitchen is just closing. Sometimes you can avoid a traffic violation. But the only time it really matters is in the emergency room with your kids. That's when you want to be noticed, because it's very easy to get forgotten in an ER.
Bill Murray
I think there's only so many people that can take care of themselves, and can take care of other people. And the rest of the people … they're useful in terms of compost for the whole planet, you know.
Bill Murray
The more relaxed you are, the better you are at everything.
Bill Murray
The only good thing about fame that I've gotten is I've gotten out of a couple of speeding tickets. I've gotten into a restaurant when I didn't have a suit and tie on. That's really about it.
Bill Murray
I don't believe that you can give the same performance every take. It's physically impossible, so why bother? If you don't do what is happening at that moment, then it's not real. Then you're holding something back.
Bill Murray
If it starts to drag on set, or if you feel like it's not a fun experience, people get down, the energy gets down. You've got to keep the energy up.
Bill Murray
I'm just a potato that won't quit. I'm a potato with some legs. Some have eyes, I've got legs.
Bill Murray
I'd sort of gone through some sort of spiritual change in the late 70s where I sort of saw there was some other life to live. It changed the way that I worked just having a different presence and a different tension.
Bill Murray
I have a brother who gives socks for Christmas. He gives socks. Every year, I get a pair of socks from him.
Bill Murray
I'd like [Santa Claus] to give Wes Anderson, the director, enough money in his next budget for an aerial shot - just a little copter shot. He really wanted this one helicopter shot, and Disney wouldn't give him the money. Just wouldn't give him the money. Every day, he was talking to the studio about this helicopter shot.
Bill Murray
You had to keep the mood up you had to keep the tempo up. You had to keep the feeling of, Hey, we're doing something that's really exciting. It's fun being with these people. And the more fun you have, the better you do it.
Bill Murray
There are a lot of actors that are more talented than me at Second City who quit it before they even got to a paying status. Weird luck. I had no other option.
Bill Murray
I don't have to take this abuse from you -- I have hundreds of people waiting in line to abuse me!
Bill Murray
Movie acting suits me because I only need to be good for ninety seconds at a time.
Bill Murray
I don't want to be that guy mumbling into his drink at a bar.
Bill Murray
The secret is to have a sense of yourself, your real self, your unique self. And not just once in a while, or once a day, but all through the day, the week and life.
Bill Murray
But I can only take so much TV, because there is so much advice. I find people will preach about virtually anything - your diet, how to live your life, how to improve your golf. The lot. I have always had a thing against the Mister Know-It-Alls.
Bill Murray
Religion is the worst enemy of mankind. No single war in the history of humanity has killed as many people as religion has.
Bill Murray
I think midlife crisis is just a point where people's careers have reached some plateau and they have to reflect on their personal relationships.
