I gravitate towards sort of broken characters who try to be better people.
Matthew Perry

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

If there's a silence in a room I'll try to fill it as soon as humanly possible.

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.

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've been accused of not really paying attention to a sentence unless my name comes up in it twice.
Matthew Perry

My feeling on therapy is it's a luxury, and if you're fortunate enough to get some smart people to talk to about life, then that's fortunate and you should go for it.
Matthew Perry

When I was younger, I used humour as a tool to avoid getting too serious with people - if there was deep emotional stuff going on, then I would crack a joke to defuse the situation.
Matthew Perry
Image
I'm very, very jealous of guys who just go and decide to party and then can work the next day.
Matthew Perry
Image
I would always be the kid that got in trouble in school, that's for sure, for joking around.
Matthew Perry
Image
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
Image
I have a well-documented history of trouble with intimacy.
Matthew Perry
Image
I would like you all to give me a round of applause as I have not crashed my car in over 15 months.

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.
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.
Matthew Perry
Image
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.

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
Image
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.

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.
