More quotes by Bill Murray
Drinking again? Go to hell. All I ever do is make some movies that made a lot of money now leave me alone, I want to have some fun.
Bill Murray
One of the things I like about acting is that, in a funny way, I come back to myself.
Bill Murray
Movie acting suits me because I only need to be good for ninety seconds at a time.
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
There aren't many downsides to being rich, other than paying taxes and having relatives asking for money. But being famous, that's a 24 hour job right there.
Bill Murray
Chicago actors are hard-nosed. They're tough on themselves and their fellow actors. They're self-demanding.
Bill Murray
I’ve killed myself so many times, I don’t even exist anymore.
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
Chicks dig me because I rarely wear underwear, and when I do, it's usually something unusual.
Bill Murray
Awards are meaningless to me, and I have nothing but disdain for anyone who actively campaigns to get one.
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
You can handle just about anything that comes at you out on the road with a believable grin, common sense and whiskey.
Bill Murray
Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.
Bill Murray
It's a lot of work to read a crummy script.
Bill Murray
[My brother] lived in a dry gulch where the world of socks and shoes became extremely fascinating, and he felt that everyone needs a good pair of socks, and why not limit his gift giving to something that everybody needs? He thought that there was something humorous about it. So he gives socks.
Bill Murray
I would jump into the middle of the street and say, excuse me, there's a Mercedes that's got to get through here. And I would push people out of the way, get out of the way! Let him through! Smacking their cars and stuff. Just like, whack and you just jump into it.
Bill Murray
I'm over the Oscar thing. I feel that if you really want an Oscar, you're in trouble. It's like wanting to be married - you'll take anybody. If you want the Oscar really badly, it becomes a naked desire and ambition. It becomes very unattractive. I've seen it.
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
To people who want to be rich and famous, I'd say, Get rich first and see if that doesn't cover it.
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
