More quotes by Trey Parker
If we have a great idea, we'll go, 'Oh, this could be a cool movie.' Or really for us, it's more like, 'Oh, this is a really bad idea. Let's do this. This seems really stupid.'
Trey Parker
I spend shockingly little time thinking about real-world stuff.
Trey Parker
It's all based on saying the shocking thing. We used to have a great time going to Hollywood parties and saying 'I think George Bush is doing a great job.' We'd clear out the room. I used to love it.
Trey Parker
The truth is, marijuana probably isn't going to make you kill people. Most likely isn't going to fund terrorists, but pot makes you feel fine with being bored and it's when you're bored that you should be learning a new skill or some new science or being creative. If you smoke pot you may grow up to find out that you're not good at anything.
Trey Parker
No, writing musicals is the hardest thing in the world. And it was really funny, because I remember when the South Park movie came out, there were some critics that said, 'Well it's obvious that in order to get it to be 90 minutes they filled some time with music.'
Trey Parker
I would never kill somebody, unless they pissed me off.
Trey Parker
Hollywood views regular people as children, and they think they're the smart ones who need to tell the idiots out there how to be.
Trey Parker
Basically ... out of all the ridiculous religion stories which are greatly, wonderfully ridiculous—the silliest one I've ever heard is, 'Yeah ... there's this big giant universe and it's expanding, it's all gonna collapse on itself and we're all just here just 'cause ... just 'cause'. That, to me, is the most ridiculous explanation ever.
Trey Parker
It's not like we have a formula, but I think one of the reasons this show has survived is that it has a big heart at its center. Other cartoon shows have people crap on each other and make racist jokes. But I don't think people tune in for that. I just don't think a show lasts for 10 years without a heart.
Trey Parker
To me, every episode is like a song, and every season is like an album. There's that part of the day when you first get the idea and you say, This could be really funny. And you sit down and you write it. There's just something that happens there that doesn't happen when you really give it a lot of time beforehand.
Trey Parker
We're the guys who, if someone says you really shouldn't do an episode making fun of Scientologists, we say, 'Whatever.' Someone says, 'They might come try to burn your house down,' we say, 'We'll just get another one.'
Trey Parker
I find Mormons adorable. I love Disneyland and old musicals, and, to me, Mormonism fits right in with all of that.
Trey Parker
Something is cool until everyone thinks it's cool.
Trey Parker
I see Santa Claus and Joseph Smith and Luke Skywalker as the same person.
Trey Parker
Sean Penn's really the only one stupid enough to put anything down on paper.
Trey Parker
Me and Matt love to argue, but in general our sense of humor is pretty much alike.
Trey Parker
Well I looked in my moms closet and saw what I was getting for Christmas, an ultravibe pleasure 2000.
Trey Parker
So much of what you see now in Hollywood is written and directed by committee, and you can see it.
Trey Parker
It's this simple law, which every writer knows, of taking two opposites and putting them in a room together. I love anything with Cartman and Butters at the same time, it's great.
Trey Parker
When I was in sixth grade there was a talent show, and I wrote my first sketch, 'The Dentist.' I played the dentist, and I had my friend play a patient. It was sort of what can go wrong at the dentist, and I just remember I had lots of fake blood and everything.
Trey Parker
