More quotes by Brent Spiner
Certainly I find it most interesting to play a role that I can invent from nothing.
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
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
I think the potential for man is so enormous, if we can stay alive long enough, we're going to be seeing a lot of what Star Trek is projecting.
Brent Spiner
I had a fantastic teacher in high school. I had one of those guys you dream of having, who molds your life and inspires you to go in a particular direction, and he was quite brilliant. His name was Cecil Pickett, and a lot of the kids from my high-school drama class are in professional show business and have done quite well.
Brent Spiner
One of the things about working on Star Trek that was always so great was that we all got along as well as we did. We really became family.
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
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
You look at that movie [Dude, Where's My Car?] now, and you know exactly when it was made. And that's what kids were like then.
Brent Spiner
I think honestly, believe it or not, that Dude, Where's My Car? in a way represents its time better than almost any film made around that.
Brent Spiner
I assumed, Well, I must've sounded like Conan O'Brien, or a reasonable facsimile or something. And there I am in the movie [South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut ]. I was very lucky.
Brent Spiner
The kid in the episode [of Tales From The Darkside ] was played by Christian Slater! He was all of about 12 or so, but I've run into Christian many times since then, and he always does his line from Tales From The Darkside whenever he sees me.
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
Needless to say, I was impressed by Felicia [Day] and her moxie with how to do a web series. I mean, she's the queen of the web.
Brent Spiner
That's what kids were like then. So I really like the movie [Dude, Where's My Car? ], I think it's genuinely funny, and I wish I hadn't been so arrogant about it. And, of course, I didn't know it was going to be my best work, either.
Brent Spiner
I think it's the business part of the word show business that causes me the most concern.
Brent Spiner
I had a really nice time on [Alphas]. It was a bunch of really good actors, and I was particularly thrilled to be working with David Strathairn.
Brent Spiner
I have to go with Data's makeup, because that was basically every day, 10 months out of the year, for seven years. There were only a couple of days that I had to endure for Dr. Soong.
Brent Spiner
A job is a job. And I like to work.
Brent Spiner
The Dain Curse [Tom Fink] was a great job. I was in New York, and I was young - I think I'm 28 years old in that - and I got to work with James Coburn and Jean Simmons and Jason Miller. Plus, it was a Dashiell Hammett story, and I had a great character. It was fantastic to shoot.
