More quotes by Brent Spiner
The character of Brent Spiner. We certainly collaborate on the concept of that, but he basically writes the script, then it's sort of a combination of his voice and my voice.
Brent Spiner
That job [on Out to Sea], more than any I've ever done, I couldn't wait to get to work in the morning. And not only that, but I had a great part. So it was just beyond fun on every level.
Brent Spiner
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
The one on Fresh Hell is a little easier, because we make it up. It's a strange kind of hybrid of the real me and... Well, obviously it's me standing there, and it's my voice and my face, but it's also kind of filtered through Harry Hannigan's take on the character, the one he's writing.
Brent Spiner
I do know that when I look around in show business, I see a lot of people who were in my drama class in high school.
Brent Spiner
I've gotten such good feedback from that [re-team with Wil Wheaton for Big Bang Theory appearance], and I hardly did anything.
Brent Spiner
I've played myself before this [Brent Spiner] - and I've played myself since, for that matter - and playing yourself one of the most difficult characters you can play, 'cause God knows most of us don't know who that is.
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.
Brent Spiner
I know a guy who writes on the show, it was his episode, and he called and said, Would you do it? And I said, Yeah. There's not really much else to tell, except that I was thrilled to be on The Simpsons, because it's one of the greatest series in the history of television.
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
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
The woman who wrote the movie [Ladies And Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains], her name is Nancy Dowd. She's a wonderful writer. She wrote Coming Home. And when I read the script, at that time, I thought, This movie is going to do for girls what Breaking Away did for boys. I thought it was going to be huge. It was a great script.
Brent Spiner
Generally, I have to be able to get the lines out of my mouth without making a mistake before I go to sleep.
Brent Spiner
Hollywood has more than its share of harsh and crewel stories. In fact, it's probably more the norm than the exception.
Brent Spiner
If you look around at the people in show business today they are basically the people who didn't give up.
Brent Spiner
When I get to work with people I admire, it's such a bonus, so it was an easy sell when I got this phone call asking, 'Will you do this thing with David Strathairn?' Also, they didn't ask me to audition, which is another bonus. But they said, All your scenes will be with David, and I said, I'm there!
Brent Spiner
It's fun to do something different. And there are things you can do in a small palate that you can't necessarily do in a larger role. You can go a little further and do things you could never pull off for any length of time, but you can do for the short run.
Brent Spiner
I think I worked an average of about 10 minutes a day [in Big Bang Theory series]. It took longer to get to the studio than I actually worked. So I regard the driving there as the actual job. The work itself was just fun.
Brent Spiner
I'm, like, y'know, I didn't have a problem doing one scene in Dude, Where's My Car? I'm certainly not going to have a problem doing one scene in a [Martin] Scorsese movie!
