More quotes by Will Arnett
You don't always have to run. Take good time to watch first, then decide.
Will Arnett
I've always maintained that I don't think comedy should be reviewed. I think it's un-reviewable, because it is so subjective.
Will Arnett
Because we have this whole other human being we have to think about other than ourselves. We had the luxury before of being totally self-centered.
Will Arnett
When it sort of finally sets in that you're not going to be doing that anymore... it's disappointing.
Will Arnett
I probably suffered from ADHD, but they weren't so quick to diagnose it back then. For PE, they'd drop you in the woods with a compass and a pack of matches. It gave you confidence that you could rely on yourself.
Will Arnett
Because I think a lot of people felt like, ultimately - and this isn't the first time I've said this, so I'll bore you again with it - but ultimately it was... I think it felt like homework a bit for people.
Will Arnett
And then we've got Blades of Glory, and we've got Brothers Solomon, and I've got a script in development with this guy Chuck Martin who used to write on Arrested, and, you know, we have a few things in various stages of development.

I often get, 'Oh, you always play the asshole.' An asshole is somebody who knows that they're doing it, but continues to behave a certain way. The one sort of common thread to me has always been that these are imperfect people.
Will Arnett
Everything's not black and white. We choose to make bad decisions or not. I wanted to explore that and shine a light on it. Chip is trying to be a better person and lead a better life. His methods are just super flawed.
Will Arnett
But as a result of that, there was, once the show ended, there was this talk for sort of four, five months about what was going to happen, and if we were going to move to Showtime, and if we were going to be bought by ABC or whatever.
Will Arnett
It doesn't look great if you cancel the reigning Best Comedy Program, you know, you're gonna take a hit from a... from sort of a public relations standpoint.
Will Arnett
Arrested Development opened a lot of doors for me.
Will Arnett
This pilot, by far, was the best I ever read - and I hope that insults every other pilot I worked on.
Will Arnett
I want my son to wear a helmet 24 hours a day. If it was socially acceptable I'd be the first one to have my kid in a full helmet and like a cage across his face mask.
Will Arnett
That's kind of the nature of the profession I'm in. It's frustrating. Things don't go your way, and I was no exception, in that I spent many years struggling to get work, and there are a lot of people more talented than myself who got jobs before me. And I finally, after years and years and years, got lucky.
Will Arnett
My first movie was this independent that I did on the Erie Canal in 1995, called Erie, that I don't know if you could even get, actually with Felicity Huffman. And then from that I did this film that was eventually called The Broken Giant later that fall. And then I kind of started getting into doing pilots.
Will Arnett
I am humbled by the nomination. I got to work with a cast and writers made up of geniuses. The good news is I can finally realize my life long dream and buy my wife a solid gold speed boat.
Will Arnett
When you're young, you kind of take yourself seriously, and you think, like, People need to see what I can do. And it's so laughable, especially with actors.
Will Arnett
The idea of the straight man is very important. But I'd rather it be somebody else, because it's not as fun. And when I say somebody else, of course I mean Jason Bateman. He's born to play boring characters because he's such a bore. He's one of the most boring human beings.
Will Arnett
Playing the assholes in the movie is fun.
