More quotes by Will Ferrell
I live by 'Earnin' and burnin'.' Meaning, I like to make money and spend it before I even have it. That's the way I live my life.
Will Ferrell
My dad turned me onto Peter Sellers as a kid. I loved the fact that he was a unique combination of being extremely subtle and over-the-top all at the same time, and that's a hard thing to do. I admire that.
Will Ferrell
I think you can't do any action without in some way paying homage to John Woo. He's the guy who just invented that sort of next level of poetic nasty action.
Will Ferrell
I've always associated consciousness with artists like Bob Marley or Joni Mitchell or Bob Dylan. You know, artists that really talked about what was going on in the world and really artists that are timeless.
Will Ferrell
I'm really an artist of feeling. I like creating things when it feels right.
Will Ferrell
It's nice to be in a place where I can be a little more selective, and to be sought out for ideas that I have.
Will Ferrell
I think whatever an artist does, it just has to be quality and good. I think the way Kanye's doing what he's doing with the Auto-Tune is actually creative because he just writes good melodies. He just writes good songs. He's just gifted.
Will Ferrell
Once a person has a child, the first question everyone asks is: Are you going to have more children? But it basically means: Are you going to have more sex with your wife in the hopes of having children?
Will Ferrell
I guess ultimately a lot of comedians just wanna be taken seriously.
Will Ferrell
I'm able to come and do a new sound and grow even more and make greater songs because my song-making abilities have grown.
Will Ferrell
I want to thank Jesus, and by Jesus I mean Jesus Hernandez, my bodyguard
Will Ferrell
If you're flying with your children, it's best to book them on the same flight and not on one where they have more legroom and are leaving at a different time. They could get there earlier than you, and that causes resentment. Two-year-olds can also never figure out those connecting flights. It just makes it harder, so travel as a family.
Will Ferrell
I have only been funny about seventy four per cent of the time. Yes I think that is right. Seventy-four per cent of the time.
Will Ferrell
Molly Shannon and I used to always talk about that we really felt strongly that we were comedic actors, that we weren't comedians. You just played things real and the comedy came out of the context.
Will Ferrell
No matter how much you screw up your own life by the wrong decisions that you make, it's never too late to do the right thing and change your ways and you can teach old dogs new tricks.
Will Ferrell
I left 'Saturday Night Live' without a film to go to, and I'd filmed 'Old School' while I was in my last season of the show, and that hadn't come out yet. I was a free agent, in a way, but I knew it was time to leave the show and test the water.
Will Ferrell
I remember going with my mom to a random garage sale as a kid and thinking what a cool treasure hunt that whole world was. Only to transition as an adult to think, 'What a gross place that really is.'
Will Ferrell
Whenever someone calls me ugly I get super sad and hug them, because I know how tough life is for the visually impaired.
Will Ferrell
I'm a selective pack rat. There's some things I have no problem getting rid of and others I hold onto dearly.
Will Ferrell
Anyone can memorize facts and figures. The real way to learn anything is to go out and experience it. Let your curiosity lead you.
