More quotes by Nick Kroll
The more you're able to understand how to do a good dramatic performance, that can inform your comedy. It all informs one another. And it keeps everything interesting.
Nick Kroll
It was sort of in the jam-band era and it was at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester [New York], right where I grew up. I actually went back there a couple years ago when I was on tour for Kroll Show. I performed at that theater, which was really cool to go back to the first place I'd gone to a concert.

My best friend, Andrew Goldberg - and this is genuinely not me trying to cross-promote, but this new Netflix show I'm doing called Big Mouth is about me and my best friend, Andrew Goldberg, from childhood - but there was a year when I went to his house after school every day and we watched Wayne's World and ate Doritos.

In general in comedy, there are fewer people making a ton of money and a lot more people making a living. For me, the goal is just being able to make exactly the show I wanted to make.

Mel Brooks came to see Oh, Hello in L.A. Mulaney and I had a meeting with him, and we invited him to come to the show, and he saw the Oh, Hello show live in L.A. To me, he's the most famous person. Having him come to our show that was so inspired by both of us loving The Producers and all his movies.

People want to consume what you're putting out there, and you can create a really strong following of fans and admirers, and people who are invested in your career and your comedy.
Nick Kroll
I guess there should be somewhere on the Internet that feels like a source of sacred truth. But Wikipedia sure isn't it.
Nick Kroll
The immediacy of public interaction is just unbeatable.
Nick Kroll
I was, like, a history major, and I minored in art and Spanish, but I found myself gravitating toward media studies as time went on.
Nick Kroll
It was easier to know a character's point of view than it was to figure out what your point of view was.
Nick Kroll
Go ahead and make up a ton of lies about me. That's way more interesting than pretending Wikipedia has any real information.
Nick Kroll
A lot of times, you're circling around a lot of things, and then you find that one person, or that little piece of dialogue, and it doesn't always have to be in person.
Nick Kroll
I think my goal was just to do comedy, honestly. It still is. Whatever form that took or takes, it doesn't matter.
Nick Kroll
My experience in TV is that it takes time for shows to find their way.
Nick Kroll
I gave the graduation speech at my high school. Not because I was valedictorian but because the grade voted for me to do it. And I gave a slightly contentious speech. I was a little critical of the administration. But for a long time it said on Wikipedia that I took my balls out and exposed myself to the crowd.

I would be psyched to get a phone call from Al Sharpton. I need to find out who does his hair. It's beautiful. It's a gorgeous mane.
Nick Kroll
I think Trump thinks of himself as pretty important, and now rightfully so - because he's the President of the United States. You gotta dream big, and we're all so proud of what the Donald has been able to accomplish... following through on his dreams of taking fast food dumps on a plane.
Nick Kroll
I tend to play sort of douchey.
Nick Kroll
Everybody gets better looking on TV as shows go on.Even the nerds on Big Bang Theory are getting better looking. Their clothes are getting nicer. They're better groomed. It works for them.
Nick Kroll
Music was not a big deal to me when I was in middle school. And then I slowly became a big jazz fan. Even more than concerts, a lot of my high school time was spent going to jazz clubs in the city.
