More quotes by Matthew Perry
In a perfect world, my tennis game gets better. I have kids and a beautiful wife and live on some hill somewhere that's not in Los Angeles. And the script that Tom Hanks just barely turned down gets in my hands.
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
It's tough to have a movie-star persona when you're on a show as successful as 'Friends.'
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
Trying to overcome addiction is one of the hardest things for a person to do. And the fact that I had to do it under the scrutiny of tabloid press at first made it seem even more difficult. But in fact, it oddly ended up being a plus. Because of the tabloid stuff, it wasn't like I could walk into a bar and order a drink.
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'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
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 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
I certainly like the rumour that I was the father of Elizabeth Hurley's baby. It made me think I could impregnate women in a different way to everyone else. Elizabeth and I were never alone in a room together, so I must be a very powerful man indeed. Actually, I'm thinking of suing the baby!
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
After I got my first laugh on stage, I was hooked.
Matthew Perry
I gravitate towards sort of broken characters who try to be better people.
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
To be a comedian, you have to have some darkness behind it. I certainly draw on my past, and it helps.
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
To me, writing is remembering something funny that happened, or maybe something I said seven years ago.
Matthew Perry
I've been accused of not really paying attention to a sentence unless my name comes up in it twice.
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
