Quote

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.

I loved the logistical reality of a guy who wants to take over the world, yet who has a family too.

Image
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.

Image
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.

Image
My dad loved to laugh. He was very funny and very silly.

Anyone who tells you fatherhood is the greatest thing that can happen to you, they are understating it.

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.

Enlightenment is lightening up.

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.

Dad was in the British Army and my mom was in the Royal Air Force, so both of my parents believed in discipline.

Austin sounds a little bit like Aston Martin, which is the type of car James Bond would drive.

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.

Image
If I went by all the rejection I've had in my career, I should have given up a long time ago.
Mike Myers
Image
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.

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.

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.

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

Having a kid is like falling in love for the first time when you're 12, but every day.

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.

And I thought, when I have kids, that's the sort of well told, silly, and fun fairy tale that I would want to take them to. But it was an amazing experience. And I think Shrek is a real classic, a fairy tale classic.
