More quotes by Brent Spiner
Timing is everything, as you know.
Brent Spiner
Both of the Quaid brothers, Randy and Dennis, were in my class, and Tommy Schlamme, who produced and directed The West Wing with Aaron Sorkin, among many others. Marianne Williamson, who did A Course In Miracles, she was in my high-school drama class, too. So it was kind of an amazing class.
Brent Spiner
Rent Control is not a terrible movie, certainly not for the budget they had. And, again, it's such an '80s kind of thing.
Brent Spiner
No, actually I'm trying to stay away from the big screen.
Brent Spiner
I did learn a lot from [ Felicia Day], though, and I was able to usurp some of her talent.
Brent Spiner
I think Rick Berman just called me and asked me if I wanted to do the show [Star Trek: Enterprise], and he said they'd write an arc if I'd do it.
Brent Spiner
Having spent so much time in a fictional world, I prefer to read about the real world
Brent Spiner
I mean, I'm the tag of the [ Big Bang Theory ] show! That was one of the easiest jobs I've ever had.

Voice acting is about the easiest thing to do. You roll out of bed, throw your clothes on that you had on the night before, you go into the studio, and nobody cares, just as long as you can speak.
Brent Spiner
People think that being on Star Trek is career suicide, but it's really just the opposite
Brent Spiner
Actually, I had a really nice part in that movie [Ladies And Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains]. I mean, I have, like, one second in the final-cut version, where I say You're fired to Diane Lane. That's about all you see of me.
Brent Spiner
There is no question that everybody who works in show business is lucky because of the number of people who wish they where working in show business.
Brent Spiner
Dana Carvey is hilarious. He's a really, really funny, talented guy. You know, I can't think of anything I've ever done that I regret doing, and I certainly don't regret doing Master Of Disguise, because I got to hang around Dana.
Brent Spiner
I don't read fiction at all.
Brent Spiner
I'm an avid biography reader.
Brent Spiner
I think there is something like 90% unemployment in the Screen Actors Guild, so we are the exception.
Brent Spiner
I try not to make plans. Because, even the best laid plans etc. etc.
Brent Spiner
Radical surgery is never fun.
Brent Spiner
[Martin Scorsese ] basically works just like any other director. You work the scene, you try to find what's best in it and make it work. That's what it was like.
Brent Spiner
It was kind of an amazing class. I went to the Strasberg Institute in New York for a little while after I got there, and I've never seen anybody who was in any of my classes there ever again. I mean, that's not to say they didn't become somebody. I'm not sure. I mean, Sam Jackson could've been in my class, for all I remember.
