More quotes by Steve Martin
What I mean is that none of my talents had a - what's that great word - rubric. A singer, an actor, a dancer - there was nothing I could really say I was. The writing came much later. And, actually, thank God, because if I had said I'm a singer, I would really have just had one thing to do.

Steve Martin
The banjo is truly an American instrument, and it captures something about our past.
Steve Martin
The operation was a success, but I'm afraid the doctor is dead.
Steve Martin
Writing is extremely personal, and that's the joy of it for me.
Steve Martin
So, I can hurt now, or hurt later.
Steve Martin
A girl who is willing to give every ounce of herself to someone, who could never betray her lover, who never suspects maliciousness of anyone, and whose sexuality sleeps in her, waiting to be stirred.
Steve Martin
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
Steve Martin
These days it's hard to look at a poodle without thinking what a good meal he would make.
