More quotes by Jim Carrey
I know this sounds strange, but as a kid, I was really shy. Painfully shy. The turning point was freshman year, when I was the biggest geek alive. No one, I mean no one, even talked to 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
Ultimately, we’re not the avatars we create. We’re not the pictures on the film stock. We are the light that shines through it. All else is just smoke and mirrors. Distracting, but not truly compelling.
Jim Carrey
I don't make it in regular channels, and that's okay for me.
Jim Carrey
I've arrived at the place if I'm not taking a career risk, I'm not happy. If I'm scared, then I know I'm being challenged.
Jim Carrey
I'm not a bible thumper, I'm not any of that stuff, but I do believe that the force is with us.
Jim Carrey
If I'm not back in 5 minutes, just wait longer.
Jim Carrey
I think if we all acted the way we felt, four out of eight people at a dinner table would be sitting there sobbing.
Jim Carrey
It's always good I think in general to have different energies on screen, like it's nice to have different characters go at different speeds, just like different people work at different speeds.
Jim Carrey
It's time to P-A-R-T-Why? Because I gotta!
Jim Carrey
The effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is.
Jim Carrey
My career has been in a weird kind of like low-flying under the radar-kind of place. I never made it on Saturday Night Live where all my friends did.
Jim Carrey
I got a lot of support from my parents. That's the one thing I always appreciated. They didn't tell me I was being stupid they told me I was being funny.
Jim Carrey
I think I could go away tomorrow. I've already accomplished something. It's such a selfish business that sometimes I get sick of myself.
Jim Carrey
I don't think human beings learn anything without desperation. Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything or creating anything. Period. If you ain't desperate at some point, you ain't interesting.
Jim Carrey
I cannot be contained because I am the container.
Jim Carrey
When the first big paycheque with 'Dumb And Dumber' hit, I went: 'Gosh, I wonder if this will affect my performance. Will I do a take and think, was that worth $7 million?' But that never happened. If anything, it made me rebel against that thing when people who get rich start playing it safe.
Jim Carrey
It is better to risk starving to death then surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what's left?
Jim Carrey
I hate Christmas. I do think it is odd that I have wound up playing these two iconic Christmas haters. It is the same story, in a way. Scrooge is the original Grinch. I think I am perfectly suited, because I have had some dark Christmases.
Jim Carrey
I don't remember yesterday. I pretty much live in the moment.
