More quotes by Jim Carrey
Life opens up opportunities to you, and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them.
Jim Carrey
I'm not always looking for the laugh. I'm not the guy who sits in and listens to conversations and wants to jump in with something hilarious every two seconds. I actually do listen to people.
Jim Carrey
I need privacy. I would think that because what I do makes a lot of people happy that I might deserve a little bit of respect in return. Instead, the papers try to drag me off my pedestal.
Jim Carrey
Like many of you, I was concerned about going out into the world and doing something bigger than myself. Until someone smarter than myself made me realize that there is nothing bigger than myself.
Jim Carrey
Movies find me, and I kind of just allow them to find me.
Jim Carrey
You know, I live a monastic lifestyle. No, I do. I do live in extremes, basically. I go back and forth. Once every six months, I'll have a day where I eat more chocolate than has ever been consumed by a human being.
Jim Carrey
The worst thing in the world when you feel broken is to have somebody coming at you with open-faced love.
Jim Carrey
Be grateful. Find something to be grateful for. Don't do too many things that make you feel like you deserve to lose because we do program our own computers. I believe there is a plus and a minus column and if you end up on the minus column, your own conscience will make you lose.
Jim Carrey
Most of the time I live with my pain. I have pain but I won't show it around. I think that's the nobility of the character. There's something noble in not spewing on people all the time about your problems. I'm the light guy, so I identified.
Jim Carrey
I really want to love somebody. I do. I just don't know if it's possible forever and ever.
Jim Carrey
Hysterical in The Mask funny yet moving in The Truman Show.
Jim Carrey
I love stories about teachers. For some reason I can't get enough of those kind of stories. If I turn a movie on about a teacher, I love it. I love that idea of an adult influence on kids.
Jim Carrey
Come back here so that I may brain thee!
Jim Carrey
It's always fun to do something that you know ultimately is not about the money, and it's certainly not for the fame - because it's a pain in the ass. But it's really the person in the theater seat you think about when you sit in a room and write.
Jim Carrey
I cannot be contained because I am the container.
Jim Carrey
I hope I'll never be is drunk with my own power.
Jim Carrey
I just may laugh at different things than most people. I laugh at mistakes. I laugh at how you recover from mistakes. I see when people go off their material and it's actually happening in front of you and that kind of stuff excites me.
Jim Carrey
Our eyes are not viewers, they're also projectors that are running a second story over the picture that we see in front of us all the time. Fear is writing that script, and the working title is 'I'll never be enough'
Jim Carrey
Psychologically, it's what I love to be. Tearing apart a person from the inside out.
Jim Carrey
I try to do something the audience might not have seen before.
