More quotes by Charlie Day
I have expanded my mind and destroyed my liver but I didn't give up.
Charlie Day
You live your comedic life close to the edge, you're gonna cross the line and offend people.
Charlie Day
I eat stickers all the time dude!
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
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
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
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 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
The idea of doing stand-up is terrifying to me.
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
As an actor, sometimes you feel a pressure to change yourself from time to time.
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.

Both of my parents are actually music teachers.

I'm always in the elements, it seems like it's pouring rain on me a lot and there's crowds of people pushing me around, and it feels very real. Which is great as a actor, you don't have to come up with too much of it. I'm always amazed.
Charlie Day
Everyone knows what it's like to feel like the underdog. Everyone wants to be accepted. Ultimately, everybody wants to be loved.
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.
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.
Charlie Day
I think people are surprised when I string two sentences together. But I had a fiercely academic upbringing.
Charlie Day
Hot soup at table is very vulgar it either leads to an unseemly mode of taking it, or keeps people waiting too long whilst it cools. Soup should be brought to table only moderately warm.
Charlie Day
Still when I go on talk shows, I worry that I have to live up to a comedic persona.
Charlie Day
