More quotes by 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.

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'm an aspiring writer. I hate that phrase. You're either a writer or you're not.
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
Weddings mainly are for drinkers.

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.

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
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.
Jack Black
I'd rather be the king of kids, than the prince of fools.
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 always feel bad for people getting married and spending upwards of a hundred thousand dollars. It just seems so absurd to me.
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
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 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
A long life or a short life are of equal importance to God.
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'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 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
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.
Jack Black
I serve society by rocking!
