More quotes by Will Ferrell
I'm really an artist of feeling. I like creating things when it feels right.
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
What’s the point of being bad when there’s nothing good to stop you?
Will Ferrell
My wife and I always enjoy going for a jog.
Will Ferrell
I still regret that I never played soccer in high school. I chose basketball over soccer.
Will Ferrell
Why not work with your friends? It's working with people you know, and you share the same sensibility.
Will Ferrell
I'd love to become like Bill Murray, who was so funny on 'Saturday Night Live' and has gone on to do some of the landmark comedies people like. And then to add this whole other phase to his career with 'Lost in Translation' and 'Rushmore.' I always felt to be able to have something similar to that would be great.
Will Ferrell
I think a lot of the instincts you have doing comedy are really the same for doing drama, in that it's essentially about listening. The way I approach comedy, is you have to commit to everything as if it's a dramatic role, meaning you play it straight.
Will Ferrell
I'm a bit of a gourmet chef. I love cooking - mostly Thai food.
Will Ferrell
I built a jail in my closet and I would incarcerate my family from time to time.
Will Ferrell
If no-one comes from the future to stop doing it, then how bad of a decision can it really be?
Will Ferrell
I was one of the richest rappers in 2008. But it was definitely a strange feeling.
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 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
Inappropriate behavior makes me laugh.
Will Ferrell
Before you marry a person, you should first make them use a computer with slow Internet to see who they really are.
Will Ferrell
It's tough for me to get rid of clothes. I grew up in a household with a limited budget and we really had to make our nice clothes last, and so now I'll get free pairs of shoes and this, that and the other and I'll be like, 'Oh great!' even though it stresses me out that I don't have enough room to put them, I can't throw them away.
Will Ferrell
James Caan told me at the end of filming 'Elf' that he had been waiting through the whole film for me to be funny - and I never was.
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
All you have in comedy, in general, is just going with your instincts. You can only hope that other people think that what you think is funny is funny. I don't have an answer but I just try to plough straight ahead.
Will Ferrell
