With fame there is a crosswire between intensity and intimacy. You have decoy intimacy, but you are also very much alone.

Enlightenment is lightening up.
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 like my privacy. I love being a part of [films], but when I'm not doing stuff, I like to go away. I enjoy being a person, a great deal.
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
The interesting thing about life is, there is what you think is going to happen, and what actually happens.
Mike Myers
The peanut is neither a pea nor a nut. Discuss.
Mike Myers
You can't think of risks. I have nothing to lose. You either make something that you like, or you don't, and you throw it to the universe.
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
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
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
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
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
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
Here's the plan. We get the warhead and we hold the world ransom for... ONE MILLION DOLLARS!
Mike Myers
I've been involved with Shrek for eleven years, so you'd better like Shrek if you're going to be involved with it for eleven years. I do, I like it a great deal, so I enjoy it.
Mike Myers
I would love to be a father. I had a great father who taught me how gratifying that is. I'm not going to deny myself that. I think I'd be good at it. Everybody wants that experience. I definitely do.
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'm from Toronto. It's a lot more laid back. When you are thrust into different environments, there is an odd adaptation period. And then there are times when unfair, unkind, untrue things are written about you. That bothers me less now.
Mike Myers
Justin Timberlake is the single most talented human being I've ever met in my life, and it sickens me. He is, like, 12 years old or something! He has 0 percent body fat, he is musically gifted, he has a great ear for accents, and he is hilarious.
Mike Myers
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.
