More quotes by Matthew Perry
I always have the same thing - which is the fear of not getting a laugh - that I've had from the time I was a kid obsessing over, 'This joke doesn't quite work, we've got to get this right.' I was always like that, whether I was a member of a six-person ensemble or whether I'm the center of a show.
Matthew Perry
Nine times out of 10, women don't want to fix a problem, they just want to be understood. I'll never get that.
Matthew Perry
I learned a valuable lesson doing 'Mr. Sunshine,' which is that I didn't want to be in charge because it's too much. Being in charge and acting in every scene was just too difficult. It's like eating dinner in a moving golf cart every night.
Matthew Perry
I went to a high school that didn't have many people in it. There were, like, 60 people in my senior class. There was a group of cool kids and a group of really dorky kids, and I was probably the coolest of the really dorky kids.
Matthew Perry
I don't have a very 'masculine' taste in music. I get a lot of heat from my friends about that.
Matthew Perry
I have a well-documented history of trouble with intimacy.
Matthew Perry
As an actor, being on autopilot is the worst thing possible.
Matthew Perry
I have a huge interest in hockey because I grew up in Canada, where it's kind of the law that you love hockey.
Matthew Perry
I loved playing Chandler. I grew up playing that part.
Matthew Perry
When I was younger, I used humour as a tool to avoid getting too serious with people - if there was deep emotional stuff going on, then I would crack a joke to defuse the situation.
Matthew Perry
My sense of style is an old Polo shirt, jeans and, unfortunately for the longest time, white running shoes, which was not attractive. The one thing I've learned about clothes is to ask a girl.
Matthew Perry
I'm just glad that the whole John Wayne persona of a man is sort of old school now, because I'd never be able to do that. If that was the going rate today, I wouldn't be working.
Matthew Perry
I'd say that on 'Friends' my character was the guy bouncing around the room. I'm no longer that guy, necessarily, in my life. I used to be. But I'm not now.
Matthew Perry
They say that women like a man who can make them laugh, and I find that if you can make a woman laugh on the first and second dates, then you're doing well.
Matthew Perry
In high school, my prom date fooled around with another guy - on prom night!
Matthew Perry
I used to be a real prince charming if I went on a date with a girl. But then I'd get to where I was likely to have a stroke from the stress of keeping up my act. I've since learned the key to a good date is to pay attention on her.
Matthew Perry
I've been accused of not really paying attention to a sentence unless my name comes up in it twice.
Matthew Perry
My feeling on therapy is it's a luxury, and if you're fortunate enough to get some smart people to talk to about life, then that's fortunate and you should go for it.
Matthew Perry
The goal is to have to do the shot again because the camera guy shook a little bit as he was laughing. Without that happening, I'm not happy because there's nothing better for me than a world that everybody's just trying to make each other laugh.
Matthew Perry
To be a comedian, you have to have some darkness behind it. I certainly draw on my past, and it helps.
