More quotes by Jason Bateman
I became an adult before I had a kid, which I highly recommend. I just like to throw her around. She's a really good snuggler, and she likes to give kisses and hugs.
Jason Bateman
It takes some intelligence and insight to figure out you're gay and then a tremendous amount of balls to live it and live it proudly.
Jason Bateman
I remember my dad working with me on breaking down my script and writing out a back story for my character and all that stuff.
Jason Bateman
Improvisation, for me, is when the cameras start rolling, we don't know where we're going and let's just waste people's time and money.

Not many get a chance to hit the career re-set button.
Jason Bateman
I don't get a chance to cry that often on film, so I was hoping that talent would come my way, that day. I cheated, I guess, when I just started looking at my technology device - my iPhone - to look at pictures of my kids, before I did the scene where I had to cry. That was a good trick that I found.

I'm not a 'celebrity'. I'm not a big huge star and so when people see me it's usually to talk about something I've done and that's a great conversation to have.
Jason Bateman
The longer you stay in the job that you do the more you learn about what those around you do. As an actor I've always nosed around apologetically about: oh wouldn't it be interesting if I could do that? I can't imagine not wanting to do this everyday.
Jason Bateman
I love a massage. I'd go every day if I could. I don't need to be wrapped in herbs like a salmon fillet, but I do love a massage.
Jason Bateman
I really enjoy playing that everyman part because that part is us, the audience. And you need somebody inside a comedy to tether the absurdity to reality.
Jason Bateman
I'm not much of a party guy anymore.
Jason Bateman
Marathons are good training goals.
Jason Bateman
I can be on a telephone call, and be emailing or texting somebody else, as well. I would imagine everyone appreciates that efficiency of communication. I see it as a huge positive.
Jason Bateman
Guys like Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Sacha Baron Cohen, they do things you love to watch. I like to do the other half.
Jason Bateman
Will Arnett is one of the funniest guys I know. He has seen it all and done it all and come out the other end pretty savvy and pretty strong.
Jason Bateman
People have often asked if I'm gay because I don't go out of my way to spit and scratch and give people attitude.
