More quotes by Steve Carell
My parents had a certain resolve to them that I don’t see as so prevalent today. Through good times and bad, they were committed to one another. Their relationship wasn’t something to be constantly examined or picked apart.

I don't text, I don't have a Blackberry. Literally, I just have a cell phone that I haven't programmed and the whole Bluetooth. No. I don't even have an earpiece for my cell phone.

People just like to be on camera. There's a huge desire to be in front of the camera, and once there, people will say and do almost anything. It's sort of a drug, and I think people get addicted to it.

High school – those are your prime suffering years. They don’t get better suffering than that.

I play the baritone horn - which is like a mini tuba, and is the least sexy instrument you can choose and I generally say I don’t play one so I don’t have to acknowledge it. I also play fife.

The best food is in Chicago. There are great restaurants everywhere, from fancy places to burger joints.

Goalies almost never get credit for winning a game, but they always get blamed for losing a game.
Steve Carell
Children are very smart, in their own stupid way. A child's brain is like a sponge, and you know how smart sponges are.
Steve Carell
I was a bad dater, and up until 8th grade I went to an all boy's school. So, by the time I hit high school I was a bit freaked out by women in general.
Steve Carell
Different things just strike people differently. And it's so subjective, too. Because what makes one person laugh won't make others laugh. I guess it's kind of checkerboarded.
Steve Carell
How did I end up in films with people like Keira Knightley... all these beautiful leading ladies and me - it's kind of shocking.
Steve Carell
Do I need to be liked? Absolutely not. I like to be liked. I enjoy being liked. I have to be liked. But it's not like a compulsive need to be liked. Like my need to be praised.
Steve Carell
There's plenty of room for all sorts of movies and all sorts of comedies, so I never saw that as a competitive thing. I think there's room in the marketplace for everything.
Steve Carell
The better the person you're with, the better you're going to be because they're giving you so much more.
