More quotes by Dan Aykroyd
American Society for Psychical Research Journals were all around the house when I was a kid.
Dan Aykroyd
My great-grandfather, Sam Aykroyd, was a dentist in Kingston, Ontario, and he was also an Edwardian spiritualist researcher who was very interested in what was going on in the invisible world, the survival of the consciousness, precipitated paintings, mediumship, and trans-channeling.
Dan Aykroyd
I love to come in and play with a wig or glasses or clothes. I love using props. I'm from the Peter Sellers school of trying to prepare for the character.
Dan Aykroyd
James Brown opened at least six of our House of Blues clubs. He always delivered, but he demanded the respect of an emperor. But, come on, he's James Brown ! ... I got to play on stage with him. Did he ever fine me ? (Brown was known to fine players for flubbing notes or steps) - I would have loved to have been fined by James Brown !
Dan Aykroyd
My whole thing is to entertain, make people laugh and to forget about the real world for awhile.
Dan Aykroyd
Comedy makes everything accessible. Watching the news is kind of like being fed your evening pill. What's fun about it? Nothing. And so if you can get news and information about things going on in the world through a comic platform, everything's going to connect.
Dan Aykroyd
You look at the floor and see the floor. I look at the floor and see molecules.
Dan Aykroyd
The entertainment business is not the be-all and end-all for me.
Dan Aykroyd
I am a Spiritualist, a proud wearer of the Spiritualist badge. Mediums and psychic research have gone on for many, many years.
Dan Aykroyd
Parodies of commercials are by no means new and have been popular going back to black-and-white TV shows of the '50s.
Dan Aykroyd
I grew up on the edge of a national park in Canada - timberwolves, creeks, snow drifts.
Dan Aykroyd
I have this kind of mild nice-guy exterior, but inside my heart is like a steel trap.
Dan Aykroyd
I had the most absurd nightmare. I was poor and no one liked me.
Dan Aykroyd
Personally, I liked working for the university. They gave us money and facilities. We didn't have to produce anything. You've never been out of college. You don't know what it's like out there! I've worked in the private sector ... they expect results!
Dan Aykroyd
My first jobs were all civil service. At 14, I worked for the Canadian National Railways. At 16, I worked for the Canadian Penitentiary Service.
Dan Aykroyd
Am I a trance medium? No. Have I got a gift psychically? Absolutely not. But I believe in the survival of consciousness after death.
Dan Aykroyd
Everyone fears the cut of the blade. It doesn't matter after that. I know the spirit survives as there is so much evidence of the survival of the personality in the afterlife.
Dan Aykroyd
I get really grinchy right up until Christmas morning.
Dan Aykroyd
One minute you're up half a million in soybeans and the next, boom, your kids don't go to college and they've repossessed your Bentley.
Dan Aykroyd
I'd make a bad preacher.
