When I was a kid, I thought I was the strongest man in the world. Then, the fastest runner and then the smartest person in the world. One by one my delusions got shut down. Now I just see myself as the lamest guy in the world.

More quotes by Jack Black
I always feel bad for people getting married and spending upwards of a hundred thousand dollars. It just seems so absurd to me.
Jack Black
Part of the acting gig is when you're let loose some improvs and put stuff into your own words every once in a while. That doesn't get you a writing credit or more money. It just makes it more fun.
Jack Black
I look for good directors mainly because if you do enough of movies where there's not a real creative vision behind it, you start to turn into a robot and you want to jump off a bridge.
Jack Black
I like being married. I'm at home with my wife and kids all the time now. I don't go out for wild nights.
Jack Black
Justice is a word that resides in the dictionary. It occasionally makes its escape, but is promptly caught and put back where it belongs.
Jack Black
The real challenge is if you don't look super sexy, like a Brad Pitt, you're going to have to try harder. You're going to have to make up for it in other ways.

It's a mistake to just go make a movie where the whole thing is talking down to the kids like, Ok, we gotta bring the IQ of this movie down because it's a kids movie You don't have to do that, kids can laugh and parents can laugh at different parts and that's fun, and you see that with all of the great kids movies.
Jack Black
My parents were very supportive of me and my artistic endeavours. My father and mother came to every school play I ever did.
Jack Black
I don't think of myself as a great improver. A lot of times there's long periods of silence when everyone in the recording studio is looking at their watch and waiting for me to say something. And I'm searching desperately in my brain for anything before something dribbles out.
Jack Black
I played, like, a year of piano until I learned the 'Pink Panther' theme. That was my goal. Once I was good enough, I quit. Now my music has to have some rock.
Jack Black
Weddings mainly are for drinkers.
Jack Black
There's something about a divorce in that even if your parents still love you, the fact that they can't live with each other makes you feel there's something wrong with you.
Jack Black
I just remember the early days of Tenacious D. There was no talk or thought about doing a TV show or a movie.
Jack Black
You're not hardcore, unless you live hardcore
Jack Black
Buddha is pretty funny. Buddha is the coolest, though. If I had to go with one, I'd probably party with the Buddha.
Jack Black
I'd rather be the king of kids, than the prince of fools.
Jack Black
I'm always looking for a fresh perspective because it's fun to tell stories that are original and new in some way.
Jack Black
I don't really think differently of making a movie for grownups or making a movie for kids, if it's boring it's boring, so you want it to be entertaining and I think funny is funny whether it's for kids or grownups, the only real difference is language.
Jack Black
I'm an aspiring writer. I hate that phrase. You're either a writer or you're not.

Push-ups, sit-ups, and a strict diet of raisins. That's my plan [for 2011].
