More quotes by Steve Carell
Talking to my wife, we stare at each other, saying, 'How is this happening? Why is this happening? Why now?' It's nothing I ever aspired to.
Steve Carell
It's not a master plan to do every remake and every recreation of icons. It's just what I've been hired to do.
Steve Carell
Nothing to me feels as good as laughing incredibly hard.
Steve Carell
I tend not to be someone who's on all the time, or is always trying to make other people laugh.
Steve Carell
We are all facing the end one day or another. I say, live a good and prosperous life, make sure your choices count, make them count.
Steve Carell
I don't think of myself as funny - I don't fill up a room with my humor... I would fail miserably as a stand-up comedian.
Steve Carell
I don't even know if I have kind of a personal, like a take or a mental manual of how I'm raising kids. It's really - I think with everybody, it's just day-to-day and you just try to deal with every situation as they come.
Steve Carell
It's a very familiar type of place where people either go to their house on the lake or they get together in different places. This was a normal, relatable place that I think a lot of people have in their childhood.

Reverse psychology is an awesome tool, I don't know if you guys know about it, but basically you can make someone think the opposite of what you believe, and that tricks them into doing something stupid. Works like a charm.
Steve Carell
I don't feel that I have to control every aspect of things that I appear in. You learn a lot performing someone else's writing.
Steve Carell
I think anyone loves to play a character that is either evil to a certain extent or has a real definable character flaw. Those are always really fun, and, I think, funny.
Steve Carell
Goalies almost never get credit for winning a game, but they always get blamed for losing a game.
Steve Carell
I wasn't a class clown, I never developed this comedic flair as a kid. Even when I decided to become an actor, it was just to be an actor, not necessarily a comedic actor. I wasn't that guy who struck out with women so he became really funny, and that's when the women started to like him.
Steve Carell
There's such a freewheeling nature to 'Second City,' and the greatest thing about 'Second City' was having a sophisticated audience night after night who appreciated what it was. They knew it wasn't all going to be great when you improvised, so they were very forgiving that way.
Steve Carell
An office is a place to... live life to the fullest. To the max. To... an office is a place where dreams come true.
Steve Carell
Actors and magicians are both performers and they represent things that are not necessarily who they are.
Steve Carell
Everyone said to Vincent van Gogh, You can't be a great painter, you only have one ear. And you know what he said? I can't hear you.
Steve Carell
Well, on a personal level, I would never want to take on a character who didn’t have some redeemable qualities. Even the worst of people, such as Michael Scott in The Office [Carell’s character in the US version of the Ricky Gervais sitcom], have some decent human qualities that you can latch onto.
Steve Carell
I know I'm not a woman's fantasy man I don't have to uphold this image of male beauty, so that's kind of a relief in a way.
Steve Carell
I'm very fast. I'm like Forest Gump, except ... I am not an idiot!
