There's nothing you can really do to prepare to rock. Do you prepare to eat a delicious meal? Are you hungry? Then you're gonna eat it.

More quotes by 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 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
If Beethoven and Bach hooked up with Mozart and made a band, they could be a distant runner up to The D.
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.
Jack Black
I don't have any real spirituality in my life - I'm kind of an atheist - but when music can take me to the highest heights, it's almost like a spiritual feeling. It fills that void for me.
Jack Black
I'd just like to be in films that I would like to see. I think of myself as an entertainment arsenal. Like I have my acting bazooka and my music machete. And you don't know what I'm going to come at you with.
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
Clarifying your identity helps you just talk to ladies.
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
The thing is, the kids always rebel against what the parents try to push on them so I'm going to pretend like I don't want my son to hear the rock. I'm going to listen to it only in my private chambers. He'll hear echoes of it and say: What was that you were listening to papa? And I'll say: Nothing son, you're not ready.
Jack Black
Every movie presents its challenges.
Jack Black
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
It's all about finding your voice in whatever your profession... it helps your confidence.
Jack Black
When I was in High School I fell for pretty much any girl I ever met. But I was so desperate that I couldn't get any of them because they sensed my desperation! After many, many years, I learned to relax and just be myself.
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
When you get to a certain level of recognizability, celebrity, you can't go out of the house without someone going, Can I just have one photo? I don't mind, by the way, if anyone wants one we can take some photos. But sometimes you just wanna stay in the house or in the hotel room with the shades closed.
Jack Black
A long life or a short life are of equal importance to God.
Jack Black
I love comedy and drama equally and music too. I just sort of follow my nose to whatever seems really exciting at the time. Eventually, I might want to do a rock opera.
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 really wanted people to pay attention to me and like me. And the class clown thing, you know? There's a weird desperation to the class clown when you really investigate it. Why are they trying to be the clown so much? They're filling some kind of hole.
Jack Black
