More quotes by 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
Vulnerability is huge. I love to see that in characters. It's something I feel like a lot of my comedic heroes have always done.
Ed Helms
Don't be afraid of fear. Because it sharpens you, it challenges you, it makes you stronger and when you run away from fear, you also run away from the opportunity to be your best possible self.
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
What's cool is that in the story of the movie [The Hangover] our characters are also really kind of getting to know each other and bonding over the course of the movie. And I think you're seeing a real, a literal sort of friendship growing both in us as actors and on screen as characters.
Ed Helms
I mean they [ Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis] are both just really good guys and also they're both extremely funny in very unique ways. We made each other laugh an awful lot, and that goes a long way. And we also went through some hard times. I mean it was hard to make this movie [The Hangover].
Ed Helms
The piano song that I do in the movie [The Hangover], it's a great example, that was never - that wasn't in the script.
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
I'm kind of embarrassed by how quickly I adjusted to L.A. I really love it. It's so pleasant.
Ed Helms
When you try hard at everything you do, even when it feels foolish to do so, you’re opening up doors and possibilities you might not be seeing in the moment.
Ed Helms
I'm sort of laughing and so Zach [ Galifianakis] started laughing [on the set of The Hangover]. And Todd [Phillips] was baffled because what we were saying wasn't that funny, you know what I mean? And it was like all the baby's face. So Todd was like, 'What is going on? Get it together guys.'
Ed Helms
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.
Ed Helms
I think the culture of Civil War re-enacting is also incredibly fascinating.
Ed Helms
I wish there was a way to know you were in the good old days before you actually left them.
Ed Helms
I loved the show Lost, in part because the writers were so nimble in how they would take things from previous episodes, that probably weren't created with any intent towards a larger narrative, and they would get woven into narratives in a really elegant and exciting way.
Ed Helms
Todd [Phillips] doesn't care. That's part of his genius as a director, he will say anything to anybody.
Ed Helms
It's kind of hard to win most elections on anti-family, immorality, and Satan-worship.
Ed Helms
Probably my favorite thing about watching a movie that I'm in the first time is to see all the things I didn't know were happening in a scene around me.
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
I'm glad to always have that connection to a part of the country that doesn't really have anything to do with what I do. That said, there seems to be a lot of production drumming up in Atlanta these days. It would be kind of a dream come true to go back to Atlanta to work on a movie, but we'll see what happens.
