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.

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.

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
Everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart, and all that will be left of you is what was in your heart.
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
Like many of you, I was concerned about going out into the world and doing something bigger than myself. Until someone smarter than myself made me realize that there is nothing bigger than myself.
Jim Carrey
Don't worry if you miss your cue, because there's always doors opening. They keep opening.
Jim Carrey
I said yes to so many things, from a sex change to gastric by-pass surgery, so it's always paid off for me.
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
The money can be a hindrance to someone like me because the danger is that you start thinking, 'Is that a $20 million take?' That kind of thing, and being self-critical.
