Steve Jobs was a real rock star to me. I looked forward to his products like people look forward to albums.
Fred Armisen
I still feel lucky whenever I hear a director say, Action! Because then I think, Whoa, I'm really in the movies. This is a real thing happening. I've never not been enthralled by that. I still love it. I still love hearing it, and I feel really lucky all the time.

I don't miss anything ever. Because to me, missing something is like going backward a little bit. I don't miss being in a punk band. For me, 'SNL' is like... this is gonna sound overly dramatic, but... the way I am, it feels like I'm a soldier, so it was like, 'What do you want me to do? Put me anywhere. Do you want me to do these sketches? Great.'
Fred Armisen
I like it when people are driven. I love that in any field of work, in architecture or whatever. Like Lorne Michaels - he pays attention to every detail.

Just a lot of those bands [like The Blue Jean Committee] started off in blues, and then they all transformed into other kinds.
Fred Armisen
I'm so glad cities have personalities, just like people have personalities. That's something that makes me smile.

Remember that there's no one way of doing things. ... If you just get a hammer and hit it really hard, whatever it is, I guarantee you it'll open.
Fred Armisen
The population increasing, some of it could be in countries we haven't thought of making art in. I've never entertained making comedy in China. Like what world is that? I don't know how they would perceive art or sketch comedy. It's not a matter of intellect it's a matter of language.
Fred Armisen
I want it all... fast. I want to be married, I want to live together... and then somewhere around a year or two years, I get freaked out. I freak out emotionally and then I actually feel like 'Oh my God, who's this stranger in my house?'
Fred Armisen
I started comedy in like 1998.
Fred Armisen
Rules are really weird things, aren't they? I feel like the more I do something, the more I see through rules. I see the reason to ignore it, but at the same time, That's why they made that rule!
Fred Armisen
I was raised in New York and spent two years in Rio. My parents met at the University of Southern Mississippi, and they had me there, and then we moved to New York. I'm not very familiar with Mississippi.
