More quotes by 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
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
Weddings mainly are for drinkers.
Jack Black
You must never underestimate the power of the eyebrow.
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
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
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'd rather be the king of kids, than the prince of fools.
Jack Black
I'm always looking for talented people that I want to collaborate with.
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
You're not hardcore, unless you live hardcore
Jack Black
I'm an aspiring writer. I hate that phrase. You're either a writer or you're not.
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
Clarifying your identity helps you just talk to ladies.
Jack Black
Habit is the strongest thing in life.
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
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
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
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.

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