More quotes by 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 never thought I was finished when people said I was finished, or any of that stuff. I always had this undying belief that even if I was in a wheelchair and I could only move my finger, somehow I would become the guy who does the amazing thing with his finger.
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
Not hope, but Faith. I don't believe in hope. Hope is a beggar.
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
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 want to be the greatest actor that ever lived, frankly. I'd love that. But I don't need to be. I just want to be here. That's it.
Jim Carrey
I can be your best friend or your worst enemy. You seem to prefer the latter.
Jim Carrey
Movies are great, but the real romance happens right here somewhere as real close-up. Either you're the one erasing or you're the one being erased, so... It's not a pleasant feeling!
Jim Carrey
I'm talkin' about a place where the beer flows like wine, where the women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano. I'm talkin' about Aspen.
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
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 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
If you aren't in the moment, you are either looking forward to uncertainty, or back to pain and regret.
Jim Carrey
I would challenge anybody in their darkest moment to write what they're grateful for, even stupid little things like the green grass that made them feel good, the friendly conversation they had with somebody on an alevator. You start to realize how rich you are.
Jim Carrey
I don't make it in regular channels, and that's okay for me.
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
I'm not in a recession. I'm doing very, very well. I'm doing incredibly well. I just want to be honest. I really am kicking ass.
Jim Carrey
The only thing that has ever consumed me is love from time to time. Feeling like, 'What is it? How do I get it?'
Jim Carrey
I just like being creative, whatever way I have to do it.
Jim Carrey
