Here's the plan. We get the warhead and we hold the world ransom for... ONE MILLION DOLLARS!
Mike Myers
Oh, you know, driving around, coming to a stop sign and an entire family, from 8 to 80, will be looking at me with that Dr. Evil look - pinkie on the mouth.
Mike Myers
And I love Mel Brooks. My Dad loved his movies, too, they're awesome, the kind of thing that if you're in for ten minutes, you're in for two hours.
Mike Myers
I have very happy memories of fairy tales. My mother used to take me to the library in Toronto to check out the fairy tales. And she was an actress, so she used to act out for me the different characters in all these fairy tales.

Very good training to just be a person is growing up in Canada. People say a lot of things about Canada, like that it's boring, but if you look around the world, you can praise boring. It's a very civilized place to grow up. I'm very proud of it.

Comedy and sausages are the two things that if you know how they're made they affect the appetite.
Mike Myers
The interesting thing about life is, there is what you think is going to happen, and what actually happens.
Mike Myers
I like smart jokes, I like dumb jokes, and I like dumb jokes done smartly.

Canada is a country of ingredients without a cuisine we're a country with musicians without an indigenous instrument Toronto's a city that doesn't even have a dish named after it.
Mike Myers
I grew up in Toronto and as long as I can remember, as long as there was cable, even those old cable boxes that were wired to the TV, there have been Bollywood movies on Toronto TV.
Mike Myers
Dad was in the British Army and my mom was in the Royal Air Force, so both of my parents believed in discipline.
Mike Myers
Uh oh, this guy needs coffee and croolers stat.
Mike Myers
I love making comedy. I never stopped loving it. I will continue to love it and I can't believe that I get to do it.
Mike Myers
Everything I do is autobiographical in some way. 'Wayne's World' was me growing up in the suburbs of Toronto and listening to heavy metal, and 'Austin Powers' was every bit of British culture that my father, who passed away in 1991, had forced me to watch and taught me to love.
Mike Myers
If I went by all the rejection I've had in my career, I should have given up a long time ago.
Mike Myers
I loved the logistical reality of a guy who wants to take over the world, yet who has a family too.
Mike Myers
Dr. Evil got shortchanged in the first one. The family dynamic between Scott and Dr. Evil - the adventures of being an evil single parent - needed to be explored.
Mike Myers
People ask me to record their answering machines all the time. I love it. It's a miracle to me that people want to hear back those characters.
Mike Myers
Canada is the essence of not being. Not English, not American, it is the mathematic of not being. And a subtle flavour - we're more like celery as a flavour.
Mike Myers
Enlightenment is lightening up.
