More quotes by Steve Martin
These days it's hard to look at a poodle without thinking what a good meal he would make.
Steve Martin
Comedy makes you humble. Because there are so many opportunities to miss, and strike out.
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

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
I'm not trying to be a big shot or anything like that, but I get my drinks half price.
Steve Martin
Unlike Ray Porter, his love is fearless and without reservation.
Steve Martin
Some people have a way with words, and other people...oh, uh, not have way.
Steve Martin
Comedy is a distortion of what is happening, and there will always be something happening.
Steve Martin
I've decided to take up smoking, my doctor said I wasn't getting enough tar.
Steve Martin
We've taken what was just once a racetrack and made it a multifaceted gaming destination for the entire region.
Steve Martin
A kiss may not be the truth, but it is what we wish were true.
Steve Martin
Halle Berry is here, whose win last year broke down barriers for unbelievably hot women.
Steve Martin
Teaching is, after all, a form of show business.
Steve Martin
Yeah, well, we're all writers, aren't we? He's a writer that hasn't been published, and I'm a writer who hasn't written anything.
Steve Martin
I just wanted to be in show business. I didn't care if I was going to be an actor or a magician or what. Comedy was a point of the least resistance, really. And on the simplest level, I loved comedy.
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.
