More quotes by Charlie Day
I find that the majority of the year, I don't spend acting. I spend it either writing or editing or producing, or putting things together. So it's as shocking as it is tragic. I really enjoy it. It's a valuable skill set. I certainly feel like more of a grownup.

I put myself in the category of Lucky Guy, and my hopes for the future are that I can continue to push the envelope for myself, and creatively and see what's next.
Charlie Day
I had my own insecurities, which a lot of my comedy would come from, about not being able to live up to their academic expectations. Acting out those insecurities was a way of confronting them, like, “Let me just lean into being a guy who can’t read or write.”

I don't know any songs. People have asked me to play a song, and I say, I don't know anything.

I think we're all guilty of mistaking the actors we've seen over and over again - we think we know them.
Charlie Day
I'm really into everything. Something I've been asked throughout the years I've done the show is, What kind of music are you into? I find that to be a bizarre question, because it implies there are people out there that are only into one specific kind of music. But I think I, like most people, enjoy a wide variety of music.

Growing up in Rhode Island, my friends would have strung me up if I had been a Yankees fan.
Charlie Day
You're responsible for your own character to a degree, because when it comes to the final draft of the script, you might say, Well, I think maybe I could add this here, add that there. But I find that I write just as well for the other characters as I do for myself. I think.

I am a classical fan. I like Debussy a lot, so I was trying to learn it on the piano. I've learned like a third of it, but I think I'm getting to a section that may be beyond my skill level.
Charlie Day
I waited tables in New York, and when you're in that line of work, you often have a horrible boss.
Charlie Day
As an actor, sometimes you feel a pressure to change yourself from time to time.
Charlie Day
I don't think you should just do what makes you happy. Do what makes you great.
Charlie Day
Both of my parents are actually music teachers. I think I got to a certain age where I decided I'd rather be a baseball player than a musician. Now, like most kids, I regret it.
