More quotes by Steve Martin
Acting keeps me alert to people, and life. I don't know, there's something about going to work early in the morning, and having to stay alert and concentrated. Maybe that keeps your mind alive.
Steve Martin
I think communication is so firsbern.
Steve Martin
You know, you're really nobody in L.A. unless you live in a house with a really big door.
Steve Martin
Being on Twitter is like having a fern.
Steve Martin
My fear represented the failure of the human system. It is a sad truth of our creation: Something is amiss in our design, there are loose ends of our psychology that are simply not wrapped up. My fears were the dirty secrets of evolution. They were not provided for, and I was forced to construct elaborate temples to house them.
Steve Martin
Home to me is when someone comes up to me and says, Can I get a selfie? No. It's where your wife and your family are. It's the emotional place where you feel like you're not away from it.
Steve Martin
If he thinks he would harm Mirabelle, he would back away. But he does not yet understand when and how people are hurt. He doesn't understand the subtleties of slights and pains, that it is not the big events that hurt the most but rather the smallest questionable shift in tone at the end of a spoken word that can plow most deeply into the heart.
Steve Martin
It's not what you know, it's what you think you know.
Steve Martin
I've run into people in my life who were so dramatic people who are so extreme and so frustrating to be around that you end up thinking about them and talking about them for literally years after your experience with them is over.
Steve Martin
I will do anything to look like him - except, of course, exercise or eat right.
Steve Martin
In talking to girls I could never remember the right sequence of things to say. I'd meet a girl and say, Hi, was it good for you too? If a girl spent the night, I'd wake up in the morning and then try to get her drunk.
Steve Martin
It's very hard sometimes when you can't crack something or can't solve something and you keep trying and trying and you know it's falling a little bit short. That's very hard, but then when you finally do it, it's very rewarding and the process is good too, I like working with people this way.
Steve Martin
She was feeling her bohemian oats.
Steve Martin
Mirabelle is attractive it's just that she is never the first or second girl chosen.
Steve Martin
There is something going on now in Mexico that I happen to think is cruelty to animals. What I'm talking about, of course, is cat juggling.
Steve Martin
I think films are about having a good time, so I don't know that there's a message. The message of a film is always what a critic writes, and the fun of a film or the emotion of a film is what the audience feels.
Steve Martin
To me, torture would be, I can't think what to write in the next sentence. I'm stuck. Torture would be if you didn't have the next idea.
Steve Martin
Writing is something I took up rather than anything I had an inclination toward. I like acting -delivering someone else's message - but writing is more of an accomplishment.
Steve Martin
Tweeting is really only good for one thing - it's just good for tweeting... It is rewarding, because it's just its own reward. It's sort of like heaven.
Steve Martin
As much as I remember, I just thought, I want to sing a song that starts normal and ends crazy.
Steve Martin
