There is something beautiful in the mundane if you take enough microscope to it and focus in on something that seems innocuous to begin with.

More quotes by Ed Helms
I think the culture of Civil War re-enacting is also incredibly fascinating.
Ed Helms
So long as your desire to explore is greater than your desire to not screw up, you're on the right track.
Ed Helms
We spent six weeks there [in Vegas]. The only thing crazy that I did was shoot that movie [The Hangovers]. The stuff in that movie is way crazier than anything I might have done, drunk one night in Vegas. I mean we did it for real in the movie, so that's as crazy as it got.
Ed Helms
I happen to think singing is hilarious, especially when it pops out at the wrong time.
Ed Helms
This word gets overused in describing actors but I think it applies to Mike [Tyson] in this case - he was totally fearless. He jumped in and played with us comedically and improvised a lot. A lot of jokes in those scenes with him are from him improvising.
Ed Helms
It's kind of hard to win most elections on anti-family, immorality, and Satan-worship.
Ed Helms
I'm kind of embarrassed by how quickly I adjusted to L.A. I really love it. It's so pleasant.
Ed Helms
You see a lot of sides of people on a movie set because it can be really taxing and to kind of go through all that together - you really get to know someone.
Ed Helms
I love travel. I love to go spend time in new places. And even though I got horribly sick in Thailand, and it was the sickest I may have ever been in my life, I still loved the trip.
Ed Helms
I'm the worst in The Office. It's a problem. They've had to shut down the set for like 30 minutes because of me.
Ed Helms
Working on The Daily Show, I co-produced all those field segments, and that's another huge thing.I probably did more than 100 field segments.
Ed Helms
That's actually a rare thing to be on a set full of people that you admire and make you laugh all the time.
Ed Helms
Who among us wouldn't rush out and buy a Pepsi if we thought it would make the Osborne's disappear?
Ed Helms
A lot of kind of like the way that Andy [Bernard] talks, you know, the writers pick up on those things - little moments that I inject and then they start to write it in later. It's hard to say if a whole storyline is spun out of an improv. I feel like it has happened on The Office, I just can't think of it.
Ed Helms
Going into editing when I got to New York was part of that. I guess I just kind of wanted to know as much as possible. But I have a real love of the whole process, from start to finish. So right now, I fit into the acting part of the process, but I wouldn't rule anything out. I'm enamored with how the whole thing works.
Ed Helms
There really aren't any deletes [in The Hanover movie]. There's like one or two deleted scenes but they're not important or meaningful scenes.
Ed Helms
I mean the fun part about when Andy Bernard sings on The Office is he usually embellishes the songs in fun, stupid ways. That's just something that I do in life, like in the shower or whatever. So a lot of that stuff is pretty spontaneous.
Ed Helms
It has been said that a rolling stone gathers no moss. I would add that sometimes a rolling stone also gathers no verifiable facts or even the tiniest morsels of journalistic integrity.
Ed Helms
It was never tough [ being the new guy]. It's just the warmest group of people [The Office stuff] you could ever hope to work with.
Ed Helms
Sometimes you just create a joke out of thin air in the editing room. I'm really glad I've had that experience. It gives me a little more confidence in front of the camera.
Ed Helms
