Dinosaurs did not walk with humans. The evolutionary record says different. They gambled.
Steve Martin
I would assign every lie a color: yellow when they were innocent, pale blue when they sailed over you like the sky, red because I knew they drew blood. And then there was the black lie. That's the worst of all. A black lie was when I told you the truth.

It's not the size of the nose that matters, it's what's inside that counts.

I'm tired of wasting letters when punctuation will do, period.
Steve Martin
I was deeply unhappy, but I didn't know it because I was so happy all the time.

I don't really manage my time. I really just wait until I'm inspired to do something. And when I'm inspired to do something, it just happens.

I thought if I had a Twitter feed and say I had a following of a 100,000, that means 100,000 of them would be interested in my book. It was logical, but it didn't turn out to be true. It turned out if I had a Twitter feed of a 100,000, four of them were interested in my book.
Steve Martin
As much as I remember, I just thought, I want to sing a song that starts normal and ends crazy.
Steve Martin
It's not tipping I believe in. It's overtipping.
Steve Martin
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
Steve Martin
I'm trying to think of other ones. Oh, yeah, I'd say - somebody would buy something and we'd say, and because you are our hundredth customer today, you get a free paperback.
Steve Martin
Somewhere in the world is...The world's worst doctor and he could be yours.
Steve Martin
My problem is that I don't get the same exhiliration from success as I get depression from failure.
Steve Martin
I like what a third man brings. A kind of oblique vision, seeing something in the material that you didn't know was there. As a comedian, I'm always listening to the audience. And in movies, sometimes the only audience you have is the producer and the director. I like having someone else's opinion, especially if you're on the same wavelength.

A kiss may not be the truth, but it is what we wish were true.
Steve Martin
What is a movie star? A movie star is many things. They can be tall, short, thin, or skinny. They can be Democrats... or skinny.
Steve Martin
Writer's block is a fancy term made up by whiners so they can have an excuse to drink alcohol.

You want to be a bit compulsive in your art or craft or whatever you do.
