More quotes by Pauly Shore
My life's like a big tour. It's cool, I'm still semi-young. I'm not too old yet where it's like, I hate the road! As long as I'm not anywhere for too long. I like to keep moving.
Pauly Shore
That's the biggest rule in Hollywood: Don't spend your own money.
Pauly Shore
Well, the best part about stand-up is that you control everything. Period. When you work in movies, or on TV shows, there are 50 other people involved. And it's hard, man. They brainwash you to think you're doing the right thing.
Pauly Shore
When you're a kid, all you really care about are Slurpees and Slip N Slide and riding your bike, and that's what I did.
Pauly Shore
I think you gotta look at stuff half-full as opposed to half-empty.

All these kids in Hollywood, the people born and raised out here, their parents are all in show business, and that's why I think we're good. That's why we're on top of the game now because we were born in it.

As an artist, what you do is you put out material constantly. Whether it's films, or TV shows, music... and you know, you hope people respond to it. You always have to know, as well, that not everybody's gonna like it. And that's okay. It's not for everyone. It's just for the crusty nugs.
Pauly Shore
I liked Evel Knievel, and that game Mouse Trap. That was pretty cool.
Pauly Shore
I think as a standup performer you have to feel the audience. So the audience kind of dictates what they get, you know?
Pauly Shore
You don't have to be inspired by comedians. You have to be inspired by things that are real, whether it's music, comedy...a movie - that should inspire you.
Pauly Shore
Entourage is a staple LA-based show and people say it's pretty real and I thought it was. It's an exaggeration of the truth.
Pauly Shore
I want to show all sides of myself. I mean, I don't want to howl at the moon my whole life, you know?
Pauly Shore
Even at my peak, I never went too over the top.
Pauly Shore
I remember taking mushrooms at the wrap party, it was like the first and last time I took that.
Pauly Shore
Physically, my character is stronger than him which is totally unrealistic, ... Because in reality he can ... kill me. I think it has a lot to do with (him being) the youngest of all of his brothers, and I think he got beat up a lot.
Pauly Shore
There's a lot of people out there who didn't like my style of comedy.
Pauly Shore
I want to have my face look like Brad Pitt. Then I'll be with Jennifer Aniston and then Angelina Jolie. Then the real Brad Pitt will come in, and we'll have a Brad Pitt face-off.
Pauly Shore
I was one of the first veejays to take the camera out on location, and that's what was unique about MTV at that time.
Pauly Shore
The Comedy Store attracts all types of people, growing up I was able to meet them all.
