More quotes by Brent Spiner
I love the South Park guys, Trey Parker and Matt Stone. They're geniuses. I throw that word around a lot, but I really do mean it.
Brent Spiner
It just occurred to me that there are some beautiful shots [in Rent Control] with the World Trade Center in the background.
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
Im thinking of going into rehab. Im not addicted to anything, but I think its good way to jumpstart an acting career.
Brent Spiner
I think it was somewhere around age 3 when I fell down the stairs at my house, and I got up and did a Jerry Lewis impression and got a big laugh. And I thought, Oooh, I like that. I think I need to do this for a living!
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.

There's such a grand fraternity of actors who've played the Joker, not the least of whom is Mark Hamill, who voiced it for so long and was so great. I did it one time and... I've gotten some feedback on it from people who've seen it and really enjoyed it, but I don't know.
Brent Spiner
Harry [ Hannigan] and Chris [Ellis] are sitting there while we're doing [ Fresh Hell], and Chris is directing, obviously, but if we start fooling around a little bit, Harry comes in, and he's got some addition that makes it even funnier. But we start with a complete script.
Brent Spiner
I think it's the business part of the word show business that causes me the most concern.
Brent Spiner
I don't think everybody wanted to be on [new Star Trek series] . I certainly didn't.
Brent Spiner
I got to play a funny part [in the The Master Of Disguise]. There was one thing my character did that involved flatulence and laughing at the same time - that was in the script - and that was basically what sold me on it. I really thought, This can't help but be funny. And when I saw the film, I was proud that I'd had those moments.
Brent Spiner
Any job you can go to and have a laugh everyday has got to be a good job.
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
A job is a job. And I like to work.
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
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.
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 really enjoyed Eddie Bracken. He told me a great story. He did The Odd Couple on Broadway, replacing Art Carney, and he said, Art Carney did it for six months and I did it for three years, and I don't think anyone I've ever spoken to saw me. They all saw Art Carney.
Brent Spiner
In my heart, I've never left Brazil.
Brent Spiner
People think that being on Star Trek is career suicide, but it's really just the opposite
