More quotes by 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
Radical surgery is never fun.

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
They were nicely written and nicely directed episodes [Star Trek: Enterprise]. I enjoyed working with Scott [Bakula]. So it was good to do, and, as you said, it did serve to enhance the Soong legacy.

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
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
[Voice acting] is such an easy job. It's like stealing money, really. Which I'm always happy to do.
Brent Spiner
It seemed like an interesting movie [Independence Day], and I thought I had a take on the part that was going to be unique. That doesn't happen to me very often.
Brent Spiner
I think there is something like 90% unemployment in the Screen Actors Guild, so we are the exception.

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 gotten such good feedback from that [re-team with Wil Wheaton for Big Bang Theory appearance], and I hardly did anything.
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
[Out To Sea] began a relationship I had with [director] Martha Coolidge for a few years that was wonderful, and she certainly cast me in the best roles I've ever had in film.
Brent Spiner
In my heart, I've never left Brazil.
Brent Spiner
I don't read fiction at all.
Brent Spiner
I'm an avid biography reader.
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
Certainly I find it most interesting to play a role that I can invent from nothing.
Brent Spiner
I don't think everybody wanted to be on [new Star Trek series] . I certainly didn't.
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.
