Jim Carrey
Maybe other people will try to limit me but I don't limit myself.
Jim Carrey

Jim Carrey
Fear is going to be a player in your life, but you get to decide how much. You can spend your whole life imagining ghosts, worrying about the pathway to the future, but all it will ever be is what's happening here, the decisions in that we make in this moment, which are based in either love or fear.
Jim Carrey
Riddle me this, riddle me that. Who's afraid of the big black bat?

Jim Carrey

The wonderful thing about digital process is that I can be cast in films that I would never be cast in. If I have it in my soul to play the character it doesn't matter what my face looks like, or my age. It's really liberating.
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.
Jim Carrey
As far as I'm concerned, everything bad that happens in the world stems from the same place, they're people who don't feel important.
Jim Carrey
If I'm not back in 5 minutes, just wait longer.
Jim Carrey
I think we're past the time in history where you have to come out and say, I'm happy all the time! I'm a joker! I'm a crazy man! I think people understand that I can turn that switch on but that I'm also a sensitive, normal human being with feelings and I know how to express those too.
Jim Carrey
One thing I hope I'll never be is drunk with my own power. And anybody who says I am will never work in this town again.
Jim Carrey
I don't care if people think I am an overactor, as long as they enjoy what I do. People who think that would call Van Gogh an overpainter.
Jim Carrey
I'm always trying to complicate things. For some reason I'll go, Well, maybe I can get that in, and stuff like that. I always make it really hard for myself.
Jim Carrey
