I always feel bad for people getting married and spending upwards of a hundred thousand dollars. It just seems so absurd to me.

More quotes by 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 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
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
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'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
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 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'd rather be the king of kids, than the prince of fools.
Jack Black
You must never underestimate the power of the eyebrow.
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
Every movie presents its challenges.
Jack Black
A long life or a short life are of equal importance to God.
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
Push-ups, sit-ups, and a strict diet of raisins. That's my plan [for 2011].
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'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 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 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
We're not just twice as powerful when we're together, but ten times as powerful.
Jack Black
