More quotes by Jim Carrey
I haven't been as wild with my money as somebody like me might have been. I've been very safe, very conservative with investments. I don't blow money. I don't have a ton of houses. I know things can go away. I've already had that experience.
Jim Carrey
If we (Lauren and Jim) ever get married, we're just going to put helmets on, run into each other from a hundred yards, and smash together like rams
Jim Carrey
I'm the first to admit this whole salary thing is getting out of control. In the final analysis, it's still about the work.
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
Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.
Jim Carrey
It's time to P-A-R-T-Why? Because I gotta!
Jim Carrey
I think that there's a natural attraction to enigmatic characters, people that have decided to make a decision in their lives to live differently than everyone else. That's a very attractive quality that also happens to be good for filmmaking, people that have their own point of view and aren't looking at things the same way as everyone else.
Jim Carrey
I have spiritual beliefs that I could literally go out and make an entire comedy routine about, and tour as some sort of spiritual guru, but it kind of goes against that [as] I actually believe the things, so I'm always kind of caught in the middle.
Jim Carrey
For the most sensitive among us the noise can be too much.
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
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
Magicians are definitely more arrogant. They're kind of like Abra Kadabra, you're an idiot, they don't let you in on the joke. Comedians, you're always in on the joke unless it's Andy Kaufman.
Jim Carrey
I can be your best friend or your worst enemy. You seem to prefer the latter.
Jim Carrey
Choose love and don't ever let fear turn you away from your playful heart
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
I love the idea that 'a person is a person no matter how small'.
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'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
But, you know, you can't be a star at home.
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.
