More quotes by Charlie Day
I've never written anything that wasn't somewhat of a collaboration. I don't know how people do it on their own.
Charlie Day
I love Queen. Not all of it. Some of it, I can't get into. But Don't Stop Me Now is a pretty hilarious song. It's a good pick-me-up in the car.
Charlie Day
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 don't think you should just do what makes you happy. Do what makes you great.
Charlie Day
Writing is like pulling your hair out. You have nothing, and you can't think of anything, but you have to think of something.
Charlie Day
For the people who don't know, my character could described, in a nutshell, as the bar dumb-dumb.
Charlie Day
I was the world's smallest man, covered in freckles with a squeaky, scratchy voice. And I still am, but I've learned to love myself.
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.”
Charlie Day
I don't know any songs. People have asked me to play a song, and I say, I don't know anything.
Charlie Day
I think people are surprised when I string two sentences together. But I had a fiercely academic upbringing.
Charlie Day

Charlie Day
Cats do not abide by the laws of nature.
Charlie Day
I didn’t know that it was going to launch a quote-unquote comedic career. I just wanted to do anything other than wait tables.
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.
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. Do what's uncomfortable and scary and hard but pays off in the long run... Let yourself fail... And pick yourself up and fail again. Without that struggle, what is your success anyway?
Charlie Day
As an actor, I think every moment in your life is giving you a new set of tools. You’re constantly absorbing new information that you can put back onto the screen.
Charlie Day
Thinking of Plan B muddies up your chances of succeeding at Plan A.
Charlie Day
Sometimes even hearing a bad idea is a great way to get to a good idea.
Charlie Day
I never saw myself as a comedian. I saw myself as a guy who can act funny.
Charlie Day
