More quotes by Leslie Nielsen
Yes, it's true, I've been called the Laurence Olivier of spoofs. I guess that would make Laurence Olivier the Leslie Nielsen of Shakespeare.
Leslie Nielsen
I've always been part of comedy. One of the things about our family was that if we were reasonably funny with each other, particularly my two brothers and myself, when my father was upset with something you'd want to make sure in some way you made him laugh. Because when he didn't laugh, you were in trouble!
Leslie Nielsen
The violence or the vaudeville style of comedy is a technique all by itself. You get up there, and you are a comedian, and you're doing one thing. That is, you're going to make the audience laugh.
Leslie Nielsen
I had to weave and play around with a honey bear, you know, and I could wrestle with him a little bit, but there's no way you can even wrestle a honey bear, let alone a grizzly bear that's standing ten feet to eleven feet tall! Can you imagine? But it was fascinating to work that close to that kind of animal.
Leslie Nielsen
Do your part to silence gossip - don't repeat it.
Leslie Nielsen
I'm a professional actor. If I was a plumber, I wouldn't just do my plumbing in Beverly Hills bathrooms I'd like to install air conditioning units and a few other things.
Leslie Nielsen
I like that kind of 'straight-faced' comedy. I like to be straight-faced and outrageous.
Leslie Nielsen
I don't think anybody can really sit down and decide that their mission in life is to make people think. I think their mission in life is to leave people alone!
Leslie Nielsen
It doesn't really matter where I go (Heaven or Hell). I'll have plenty of friends in both places.
Leslie Nielsen
The reason they call if 'golf' is that all the other 4 letter words were used up.
Leslie Nielsen
Shirley! Don't call me Shirley!
Leslie Nielsen
I played a lot of leaders, autocratic sorts perhaps it was my Canadian accent.
Leslie Nielsen
You know it's very difficult to be an actor, and to have people depending on you to say the right line, at the right time, and to not be able to hear your cues! I can't tell you how many times I would've had to have said What? if I didn't have my hearing aids. So my hearing aids are a life saver, and they allow me to practice my craft.
Leslie Nielsen
I'm sure that we can handle this situation maturely, just like the responsible adults that we are. Isn't that right, Mr... Poopy Pants?
Leslie Nielsen
I really have to keep an eye on myself, because sometimes I think I might say something important.
Leslie Nielsen
One thing a person won't do when he's laughing is try to beat you up.
Leslie Nielsen
Doing nothing is very tough to do because you never know when you're finished. The upside is that from the moment you wake up in the morning, you're on the job.
Leslie Nielsen
Doing nothing is very hard to do... you never know when you're finished.
Leslie Nielsen
I've finally found my home - as Lt. Frank Drebin.
Leslie Nielsen
The reason there's a question mark on my front door is just in case I forget my address.
