More quotes by Seth Rogen
After every single take, I laugh. It's my own awkwardness and discomfort about being an actor.
Seth Rogen
I don't weigh myself.
Seth Rogen
I feel much more comfortable as a writer than an actor. I feel like I am a much better writer than I am an actor.
Seth Rogen
Just always be extremely respectful, was something that was drilled into me, which I think probably prevented me from having sex for a good seven years longer than it should have.
Seth Rogen
I'd moved to L.A., and everyone's actors here and writers, they were like super emotional and super in touch with their feelings, and it seemed like every two weeks one of my friend just coming to me and, like, you hurt my feelings the other day, dude.
Seth Rogen
For a Jewish mother, having a country wage war on your son is the worst. If Kim Jong-un only knew what he was doing to my mother!
Seth Rogen
Those are the movies that we [with Evan Goldberg] always wanted to make. Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, the kind of movies where violence and comedy and characters kind of work together really well.
Seth Rogen
If I were directing a movie, it would scare me.
Seth Rogen
I don't think all of my ideas are good. It's almost easier when people are critical of you because it helps with the quality control.
Seth Rogen
I'm intimidated anytime I work with someone who's directly outside my very insulated group of friends.
Seth Rogen
The current Babe Ruth of improv? Sacha Baron Cohen. He's pretty amazing.
Seth Rogen
When I was 13 and 14, there were a lot of jokes about my bar mitzvah and my grandparents, and then when I got older, it became more about touching boobs and trying to get liquor, you know? I kind of ran the gamut of infantile behavior... And I haven't moved one step forward since.
Seth Rogen
I've never really had a real job. When I was young doing stand-up, I'd get 50 bucks a week here or 100 bucks a week there. You know, sometimes for headlining one of the rooms, or MC-ing, or something like that. So yeah, I've never had like a normal job.
Seth Rogen
I knew I just loved comedy, and I think it was my parents who initially brought up the notion of me trying to do stand-up. I think I actually tried writing jokes just at home, just kind of sitting around. But it seemed like a very real way to step into the world of comedy. I felt I could do it, so why not?
Seth Rogen
It's much more painful to bomb in front of a group of yours peers than it is to not win. Tons of assholes ain't winning awards, but only one guy will be bombing. So, that's much more nerve-wracking.
Seth Rogen
I'm a process server, so I have to wear a suit.
Seth Rogen
I think around that time I met David [Gordon Green] or, well, we all met at Superbad and Judd [Apatow] said, 'I'm thinking about having him direct [ Knocked Up].' Sounded like a good idea.
Seth Rogen
To me, when there's movies that are about, you know, guys named Hell Boy, and you know, the issue that they have with our movie that she doesn't get an abortion, I mean, I think there's greater suspensions of disbelief.
Seth Rogen
There was, like, a week straight of shooting, where, like, all I did was shoot a machine gun. And I hate to - every - it went against all my Jewish and Canadian instincts, but I enjoyed every second of it.
Seth Rogen
In Superbad, I carry a gun, but I didn't get to shoot it that much.
Seth Rogen
