Ah, yes. I remember my first beer.
Steve Martin
As a school board we felt it's an unfair expense to families. The lawsuit has a certain logic to it - if you have free public education, you can't put these things on top of it. It defeats the purpose.
Steve Martin
The greatest thing you can do is surprise yourself.
Steve Martin
I will do anything to look like him - except, of course, exercise or eat right.
Steve Martin
I knew I could only play Cyrano if he were Americanized. I had no intention of writing the script myself. I was afraid of it. You're playing with fire when you tamper with a classic. So I went looking for a writer. But it was such a personal idea, and anyone I would give it to would make it his own. It's hard to ask Neil Simon to write your idea.
Steve Martin
I am a wild and crazy guy!
Steve Martin
If you feel tired midway through, give Neil Patrick Harris a Red Bull and throw some sheet music at him.
Steve Martin
Writer's block is a fancy term made up by whiners so they can have an excuse to drink alcohol.
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's not what you know, it's what you think you know.

Lacy was just as happy alone as with company. When she was alone, she was potential with others she was realized.
Steve Martin
A father carries pictures where his money used to be.
Steve Martin
I didn't come from a wealthy family. I had no money. Maybe it goes back to naivete which is your greatest asset when you're young. If I was starting in comedy today and if it didn't work the first time, I'd probably quit. But I kept at it, kept at it.
Steve Martin
You know what your problem is, it's that you haven't seen enough movies - all of life's riddles are answered in the movies.
Steve Martin
Only then does he realize what he has done to Mirabelle, how wanting a square inch of her and not all of her has damaged them both, and how he cannot justify his actions except that, well, it was life.
Steve Martin
Halle Berry is here, whose win last year broke down barriers for unbelievably hot women.
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
In talking to girls I could never remember the right sequence of things to say. I'd meet a girl and say, Hi, was it good for you too? If a girl spent the night, I'd wake up in the morning and then try to get her drunk.
Steve Martin
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
First the doctor told me the good news: I was going to have a disease named after me.
