More quotes by Jim Carrey
I need privacy. I would think that because what I do makes a lot of people happy that I might deserve a little bit of respect in return. Instead, the papers try to drag me off my pedestal.
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
My focus is to forget the pain of life. Forget the pain, mock the pain, reduce it. And laugh.
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
The worst thing in the world when you feel broken is to have somebody coming at you with open-faced love.
Jim Carrey
Those times in life when you're terrified are the mastery times.
Jim Carrey
Kids need to know they're the most important thing in the world to you, and if that means quitting your job to prove it, then you have to prove it.
Jim Carrey
There are two thoughts that will ensure success in all you do (1) Don't tell everything you know, and (2) until Ace Ventura, no actor had considered talking through his ass.
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
I don't hate you for loving you. I just hate my heart for choosing someone like you.
Jim Carrey
I don't feel any pressure to be funny at all. I'm funny because I want to be funny. I could sit here and be serious for an hour and you would go away and make me much funnier than I am.
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
There's been a thoughtfulness to everything I do. Even the stupidest things I do have some kind of point.
Jim Carrey
The thing is, I've always tried to create transcendent moments. Moments that take people away from their concerns. Heaven to me is when people find a way to become so involved with life that they're no longer concerned for the future.
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
My dad was like a stage mother he always pushed me to do what I wanted.
Jim Carrey
My spiritual journey has been a good kind of thing I've been on. I guess some people would say I'm obsessed with it, but in a really good way. It's just enjoyable. I don't really have crazy obsessions about things.
Jim Carrey
Movies find me, and I kind of just allow them to find me.
Jim Carrey
I used to draw a lot. If my mother would ask me to do something else, I'd have a hairy conniption. I'd just go crazy.
Jim Carrey
It's always fun to do something that you know ultimately is not about the money, and it's certainly not for the fame - because it's a pain in the ass. But it's really the person in the theater seat you think about when you sit in a room and write.
