More quotes by Jack Black
Tenacious D loves Auntie Em's. Her delicious nutrients are always energizing and indie-fresh. Where does she find those unbelievable recipes? Somewhere over the rainbow?
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
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 recommend that everyone in their youth be as out of shape as possible so that when you turn 40, people can go, Wow, you look much better now.
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
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'm always looking for talented people that I want to collaborate with.

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
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
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
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'm used to being crazy and rock-n-rolly, which is a little different than this world. For me, it was a chance to stretch a little bit.
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 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 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
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
Seems like every other day there's somebody on the news, somebody gets killed or does something crazy and all the neighbors and everybody says, I can't believe he did that, I can't believe she did that.
Jack Black
We're not just twice as powerful when we're together, but ten times as powerful.
Jack Black
Habit is the strongest thing in life.
Jack Black
I'm really excited about our DJ set. That's probably the most exciting of all. It's selfish but it's always your own thing that you're most concerned with.
