When people try to take [smoking] away from me I say, 'hey, I stopped everything else.' But, I have to battle that one, too.

More quotes by Matthew Perry
I gravitate towards sort of broken characters who try to be better people.
Matthew Perry
I loved playing Chandler. I grew up playing that part.
Matthew Perry
I would like you all to give me a round of applause as I have not crashed my car in over 15 months.
Matthew Perry
Women always think that I'm Chandler, so if I don't joke around for half an hour they think that something's wrong. Then I explain that I don't have comedy writers scripting everything I'm saying at this particular dinner.
Matthew Perry
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.
Matthew Perry
In high school, my prom date fooled around with another guy - on prom night!
Matthew Perry
I got sober because I was worried I was going to die next year.
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
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
When I die, I'd like 'Friends' to be listed behind 'helping people.'
Matthew Perry
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
I love the idea of 'the one' but I actually believe that there isn't a Miss Right. There are 12,000 Miss Rights out there and it's all timing.
Matthew Perry
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.'
Matthew Perry
There are two sides to being pigeonholed. There's, 'Oh, no, I'm going to be Chandler for the rest of my life,' but there's also the fact that getting to play Chandler opened up doors to me. It's now my job to find things that shake it up a little bit.
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
A lot of people think that addiction is a choice. A lot of people think it's a matter of will. That has not been my experience. I don't find it to have anything to do with strength.
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
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
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
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
