More quotes by Jim Carrey
My mother was a professional sick person she took a lot of pain pills. There are many people like that. It's just how they are used to getting attention. I always remember she's the daughter of alcoholics who'd leave her alone at Christmas time.
Jim Carrey
There's been a thoughtfulness to everything I do. Even the stupidest things I do have some kind of point.
Jim Carrey
I think it's important never to look a gift horse in the mouth, never to overlook your talents [and] what you're good at.
Jim Carrey
Everything can be made fun of. The most serious things are ripe for making fun of them.
Jim Carrey
I don't feel any pressure to be funny at all. I'm funny because I want to be funny. I could sit here and be serious for an hour and you would go away and make me much funnier than I am.
Jim Carrey
50 years: here's a time when you have to separate yourself from what other people expect of you, and do what you love. Because if you find yourself 50 years old and you aren't doing what you love, then what's the point?
Jim Carrey
I don't think anybody should go through life without a team of psychologists. I have been through times when I'm literally squatting in the living room, having one of those open-throated cries, where you're crying all the way to your butthole. I always believed I would come out of it, though.
Jim Carrey
I've always believed that you can funnel good things toward yourself by thinking positiviely.
Jim Carrey
Acting is divine dissatisfaction. It's the greatest thing in the world to do, but you are never satisfied with it ever.
Jim Carrey
I was on Prozac for a long time. It may have helped me out of a jam for a little bit, but people stay on it forever.
Jim Carrey
I have no limits! I cannot be contained because I'm the container.
Jim Carrey
Hope walks through the fire. Faith leaps over it.
Jim Carrey
You are ready and able to do beautiful things in this world.
Jim Carrey
I enjoy my life. The fame part of it freaked me out for a little while, and there are definitely times when it's not so great to be special and known by everybody - you know, when you're wearing the wrong thing, or just in a vulnerable place. But I'm good with my life now.
Jim Carrey
Psychologically, it's what I love to be. Tearing apart a person from the inside out.
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
My report card always said, 'Jim finishes first and then disrupts the other students'.
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
Comedic actors can be looked at as a lower form because we have to put ourselves in a lower place than most of the audience. I think lofty emotions are somehow considered more special. The best stories in the world to me are the ones that elicit a real emotion, but have humour.
Jim Carrey
That peace that we're after, lies somewhere beyond personality, beyond the perception of others, beyond invention and disguise, even beyond effort itself. You can join the game, fight the wars, play with form all you want, but to find real peace, you have to let the armor fall.
