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 gravitate towards sort of broken characters who try to be better people.
Matthew Perry
Image
To be a comedian, you have to have some darkness behind it. I certainly draw on my past, and it helps.
Matthew Perry
Image
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.

'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.

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.

As an actor, being on autopilot is the worst thing possible.

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

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.

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.

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.

Image
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.

Image
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.

I loved playing Chandler. I grew up playing that part.

Image
I don't need to be reminded that I was on 'Friends.' I remember - some of it, anyway.

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!

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?
