More quotes by Rainn Wilson
I think definitely people know me from playing creeps and weirdos, and I'm definitely looking to expand my range.
Rainn Wilson
A lot of actors are just like la la la - they're never really connected and then they're in the scene and then boom. They're looking you in the eyes and they're just really focused.
Rainn Wilson
My body has been making women laugh for the last 20 years and I'm happy to continue to oblige.
Rainn Wilson
I think God has a tremendous sense of humor.
Rainn Wilson
I can relate to someone whose life is falling apart, and they are doing the best to get by, using humor to survive. Backstrom really wears his heart on his sleeve and his life is unraveling... I would much rather hang out with that person than a slick procedural detective who has all the answers... it's human, it's frail, it's interesting.
Rainn Wilson
People are flawed. I like peaking into their flaws. The way to humanize them is not to play them in any general way, but to make them very specific. If you make them specific, they have hopes and dreams and loves and vulnerabilities and quirks and you get to know them and you get to appreciate them.
Rainn Wilson
The great thing about 'The Office' and it being single-camera and the documentary style is that it's mostly a comedy, but 10 percent of it is, we get to show the existential angst that exists in the American workplace.
Rainn Wilson
I have an eight-year-old child, and I literally can't wrap my mind around the kind of grief that must be felt when you lose a child.
Rainn Wilson
This is one doodle that can't be un-did, Homeskillet.
Rainn Wilson
Our society is all about focusing on the externals, These people like me, I'm successful because of these people, they view me as being good and we need to take that vision and instead of expanding it outwards we need to look inside ourselves.
Rainn Wilson
Life is suffering. Life is not resistance to suffering. The point of life is to suffer. This is why we're here: We're here to suffer. I believe in a higher power that compassionately allows suffering for us as a race, to grow and mature.
Rainn Wilson
I found it very easy to transform into creeps and weirdos and losers and goof-balls, and I'm happy to play eccentric kinds of characters, and I have a great affinity for the outsider, but I definitely am about expanding my range as well.
Rainn Wilson
Absolutely. I am a father, and I know best. If there's any question, just ask me.
Rainn Wilson
I want to keel over on stage playing King Lear at age 99 or something like that.
Rainn Wilson
The Baha'i celebrity, or the Belebrity, is a character actor with a big head playing an annoying creep on a TV show.
Rainn Wilson
I like being a Baha'i who has an out-there sense of humor. God gives us talents and faculties, and making people laugh is one of mine.
Rainn Wilson
You meet people in Hollywood that are famous, and you're not sure what they got famous for.
Rainn Wilson
If it’s a pure expression of yourself no matter what it is or what medium, it’s going to shine. It’s going to resonate. You could look inside of yourself and you could have a canvas and you could paint a dot in it, but if that is where your creative purpose is taking you then it needs to be that dot.

Scotland is the Canada of England!

My dad wanted to name me after Rainier Maria Rilke, the poet.
