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.

More quotes by Mike Myers
Once I turned 35, I got the bonus of some wisdom and began to accept life on its own terms.
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
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
I had done Shrek as a Canadian and I'm very proud to be Canadian, but I knew I could give more to it.
Mike Myers
My dad sold encyclopedias and my mom worked in a factory office.
Mike Myers
My dad loved to laugh. He was very funny and very silly.
Mike Myers
Europe is scooters. Europe is five young people on one bench sharing a chocolate bar. Their idea of entertainment and fun is so much different than ours, which is exactly why a movie about them would be funny.
Mike Myers
Austin sounds a little bit like Aston Martin, which is the type of car James Bond would drive.
Mike Myers
I've been frozen for 30 years. I've got to see if my bits and pieces are still working.
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
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
Here's the plan. We get the warhead and we hold the world ransom for... ONE MILLION DOLLARS!
Mike Myers
The peanut is neither a pea nor a nut. Discuss.
Mike Myers
I'm a comedic actor, not to mix words, but it's something I think about. A comedic actor. I like to think that Christopher Guest, Phil Hartman, Peter Sellers and Alec Guinness are comedic actors. And Dan Aykroyd, too. Those are my heroes.
Mike Myers
Comedy. It was just huge in my house. Peter Sellers and Alec Guinness, Monty Python and all those James Bond movies were highly regarded.
Mike Myers
And I loved the whole idea behind the story, which is that you're beautiful, so don't let other people tell you that you're not just because you don't look like the people in magazines. Or because you're not that weird ideal body image that's out there right now.
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
With fame there is a crosswire between intensity and intimacy. You have decoy intimacy, but you are also very much alone.
Mike Myers
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.
Mike Myers
The Holy Roman Empire was neither holy nor Roman nor an empire. Discuss.
