More quotes by Steve Martin
To have someone play off and be with a band is more pleasurable.
Steve Martin
You know that look that women get when they want to have sex? Me neither.
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 always felt the audience sorta tolerated the serious musical parts while I was doing my comedy.
Steve Martin
I'm not trying to be a big shot or anything like that, but I get my drinks half price.
Steve Martin
I believe Ronald Reagan can make this country what it once was... an Arctic region covered with ice.
Steve Martin
I took literally everything I knew how to do on stage with me, which was juggling, magic and banjo and my little comedy routines.
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
I feel good about being able to take bluegrass on to television like 'Letterman' and 'The View,' and I've heard nice things about being able to do that. I really haven't felt any negativity toward me or my music.
Steve Martin
No matter how many times people say it - 'Oh, I'm just writing this for myself' 'Oh, I'm just doing this for myself' - nobody's doing it for themselves! You're doing it for an audience. So whether I'm performing or writing a book or playing music, it's definitely to be put out there and to be received in some way, definitely.
Steve Martin
She had destroyed whatever was between us by making a profound gaffe: She met me.
Steve Martin
As a human being on Earth, you can't imagine friendship not being important in some other solar system or some other planet, or some other context of beings that are conscious. We even see it in animals. It is important for people on Earth to reach out or reach into someone.
Steve Martin
I handed in a script last year and the studio didn't change one word. The word they didn't change was on page 87.
Steve Martin
A father carries pictures where his money used to be.
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.
Steve Martin
I really like the animated film process. It's kind of like doing a play, because you can experiment with it, rewrite it, screen it, go back, then work on it a little bit more. If the joke doesn't work, you can fix it. It's different from a live action movie.
Steve Martin
I didn't worry if a bit got no response, as long as I believed it had enough response to linger.
Steve Martin
It was essential that I never show doubt about what I was doing.
Steve Martin
If you feel tired midway through, give Neil Patrick Harris a Red Bull and throw some sheet music at him.
Steve Martin
Bad psychoanalysis would say I enjoyed pleasing people, working really hard and pleasing people, which is probably related to my father in some way. But I really liked working hard. When I worked at Disneyland, I'd do 12 hours straight and go home thrilled.
