I think if you look back at all those great comedies on television in the past, it's all lovable losers that gathered together - 'Taxi' and 'Cheers,' 'Seinfeld' and 'Friends.'
Matthew Perry
Image
When I die, I'd like 'Friends' to be listed behind 'helping people.'
Matthew Perry
Image
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.

So I'm reading a book on my new iPad, but can't the iPad read it for me? Do I have to do everything?
Matthew Perry
Image
If there's a silence in a room I'll try to fill it as soon as humanly possible.

In high school, my prom date fooled around with another guy - on prom night!

I'm making plans to go away for a month to focus on my sobriety and to continue my life in recovery. Please enjoy making fun of me on the world wide web.

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
Image
I would always be the kid that got in trouble in school, that's for sure, for joking around.
Matthew Perry
Image
When people try to take [smoking] away from me I say, 'hey, I stopped everything else.' But, I have to battle that one, too.
Matthew Perry
Image
If I hadn't had the experience of being famous, I would have searched for it my whole life. I would have just gone on and on trying to find it.
Matthew Perry
Image
I don't need to be reminded that I was on 'Friends.' I remember - some of it, anyway.
Matthew Perry
Image
I'm glad that life isn't like a Christmas song, because if my friends and I were building a snowman and it suddenly came alive when we put a hat on it, I'd probably freak and stab it to death with an icicle.
Matthew Perry
Image
I need a woman to have a quirky sense of humor. There's a bunch of jokes I use, and if she doesn't get them, she's probably not for me.
Matthew Perry
Image
I was like: I'm going to ask her [Julia Roberts] out but I'm going to be very nervous about it. Then she said yes, I got even more nervous.
Matthew Perry
Image
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.

After I got my first laugh on stage, I was hooked.
Matthew Perry
Image
I don't have a very 'masculine' taste in music. I get a lot of heat from my friends about that.
Matthew Perry
Image
The thing that I'm most proud of in my life is that if a stranger came up to me and said, 'I can't stop drinking. I can't stop drinking. Can you help me?' I can say, 'Yes, I can help you.'
