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.

More quotes by Matthew Perry
After I got my first laugh on stage, I was hooked.
Matthew Perry
Like, my house has a nice view, because, you know, I was on 'Friends.'
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
I was a guy who wanted to become famous. There was steam coming out of my ears, I wanted to be famous so badly. You want the attention, you want the bucks, and you want the best seat in the restaurant. I didn't think what the repercussions would be.
Matthew Perry
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
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
To me, writing is remembering something funny that happened, or maybe something I said seven years ago.
Matthew Perry
Ninety percent of video game AI really is pretty damn bad. I think that's actually why it's so much fun to shoot things. Because the AI is so bad and the characters are so annoying.
Matthew Perry
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
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
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 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
I'm very, very jealous of guys who just go and decide to party and then can work the next day.
Matthew Perry
To be a comedian, you have to have some darkness behind it. I certainly draw on my past, and it helps.
Matthew Perry
'The Whole Nine Yards' I liked right away. It was kind of a dark comedy at first. And just the idea of being in a movie with Bruce Willis was pretty exciting.
Matthew Perry
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
I have a dark side it's been pretty well documented. It wouldn't be bad to show that in some light in my work...It's something I no longer fear doing and am actually excited about doing.
Matthew Perry
In television or a movie I bring my own ego and consequently can mess up. In the theatre I learnt very quickly to shut up and listen. Now I am able to get out of my own way.
Matthew Perry
I loved playing Chandler. I grew up playing that part.
Matthew Perry
