The overhead lights reflect in the glass countertop and mingle in the gray and black of the gloves, resulting in a mother-of-pearl swirl that sometimes sends Mirabelle into a shallow hypnotic dream.

More quotes by Steve Martin
So much emotion can be brought in an animated film that's very hard to get in a live-action film. I haven't quite put my finger on why, but it might be because the characters can make facial expression that, if you made them in a movie, they'd call them corny.

First the doctor told me the good news: I was going to have a disease named after me.

It is the perfect wrong time for Jeremy to do to Mirabelle what she had done to him - call him up for a quick fix - because, in a sense, she is now betrothed. Her first date with someone who treated her well obligates her to faithfulness, at least until the relationship is explored.
Steve Martin
I believe that sex is one of the most beautiful, natural, wholesome things that money can buy.
Steve Martin
My problem is that I don't get the same exhiliration from success as I get depression from failure.
Steve Martin
With a cheery delicacy she divided my obsessions into three categories: acceptable, unacceptable, and hilarious.

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 was very vulnerable to criticism for many years. I could read a bad review and remember it my whole life.
Steve Martin
You know, there's a moment when you're famous when it's unbearable to go out because you're too famous. And then there's a moment when you're famous just right.
Steve Martin
. . . Now you see . . . they' re not fit for humans . . . Put them on me.

I'm 48. For a while after 'The Jerk' (movie) I had a feeling of failure. I was a little scared. First people discover you and they love you. You get big and then you fail. And people are glad that you fail. But I've always come back and I've started to trust myself.
Steve Martin
In a strange way, I don't have a job, so I have a lot of time on my hands. When I do work, it might be very concentrated, and it might be months where you're not really doing anything except maybe playing the banjo or writing something. You know, there's a lot of time in the day if you're not working 9 to 5.
Steve Martin
I've decided to take up smoking, my doctor said I wasn't getting enough tar.
Steve Martin
Always do business as if the person you're doing business with is trying to screw you, because he probably is. And if he's not, you can be pleasantly surprised.
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
Some people have a way with words, and other people...oh, uh, not have way.
Steve Martin
I used to think a wedding was a simple affair. Boy and girl meet, they fall in love, he buys a ring, she buys a dress, they say I do. I was wrong. That's getting married. A wedding is an entirely different proposition.
Steve Martin
I cringe at backstory. Because it never quite explains or gets into some psychological thing that is never quite right and never quite the truth and who knows why someone is someway.
Steve Martin
...the divided world of Aspen, where locals with a sense of entitlement were pitted against developers with a sense of condominiums.
Steve Martin
Acting is collaborative because you are working with another actor, and it's almost like a two-man juggling team. You have to really be in sync.
