I think people are surprised when I string two sentences together. But I had a fiercely academic upbringing.
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
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.

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 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 have expanded my mind and destroyed my liver but I didn't give up.
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.

Technically, I'm a New Yorker.

For the people who don't know, my character could described, in a nutshell, as the bar dumb-dumb.
Charlie Day
I think we're all guilty of mistaking the actors we've seen over and over again - we think we know them.

I never saw myself as a comedian. I saw myself as a guy who can act funny.
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
Well, you know, I don't think anyone who writes a television series has a master plan from the beginning, and knows all the character traits, and everything that's going to happen.

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.
