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.

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.

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
Image
Well, I was lucky enough to be involved in about 19 failures at an early age, so I'm realistic about the success I'm having and how quickly it can go away. What's important is to be smart about it.

To be a comedian, you have to have some darkness behind it. I certainly draw on my past, and it helps.
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.

Image
To me, writing is remembering something funny that happened, or maybe something I said seven years ago.

Image
After I got my first laugh on stage, I was hooked.

I have a huge interest in hockey because I grew up in Canada, where it's kind of the law that you love hockey.

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 don't have a very 'masculine' taste in music. I get a lot of heat from my friends about that.

Image
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.

Image
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!

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.

I became a big Kings fan, and then later on my hometown of Ottawa got a team, so then I was very, very torn. I just love both of those teams very much.

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.

Image
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
Image
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
Image
I am fine with the fact that some of my hair is gray. If it was all gray overnight, that would be a scary thing.

Like, my house has a nice view, because, you know, I was on 'Friends.'
