More quotes by Will Ferrell
I hate when new parents ask who the baby looks like. It was born 15 minutes ago, it looks like a potato
Will Ferrell
I've never been a conceited person or cocky, never felt boastful, but I always had a sense of self-worth I always had a real sense of myself.
Will Ferrell
When I first started doing sketch comedy, I promised myself that if I were ever to have any success in this business, I wouldn't hold back. Why get there and play it safe?
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
It doesn't really exist, this Frat Pack. We run into each other on occasions and we all like each other's films, I guess, but there isn't some big funny restaurant or bar where we all hang out. At least, if there is, they haven't invited me.
Will Ferrell
When you're doing an out-and-out comedy, the notion of preparing for a character - I hope I don't reveal too much of myself here - but, uh, no, I'm not doing anything.
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
In every circle of friends there's always that one person everyone secretly hates. Don't have one? Then it's probably you.
Will Ferrell
As you set off into the world, don't be afraid to question your leaders. But don't ask too many questions at one time or that are too hard because your leaders get tired and/or cranky.
Will Ferrell
Every time I do a partnership with the corporation, it's usually - I mean, it is - reflective of me and they really want who I am. They want what I've established for my brand and the respect and quality that I've established.
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
If you ain't first, you're last!
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.
Will Ferrell
I think people don't understand that comedy is an outlet for me. Comedy allows me to get outside of myself, and exercise this thing that is still kind of scary to me.
Will Ferrell
When you look at someone like Sacha Baron Cohen, you have to really respect the boundaries he is pushing as Bruno or Borat.
Will Ferrell
I will watch a movie that is quote unquote dark and not get the qualification of what is dark and what is not.
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
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'm professional, I'm allowed to say this. I let him lick my balls. So, that's what you need to get close with your animal.
Will Ferrell
I'm a Progressive. Much in the same way our founding fathers - who, oddly enough, wouldn't get elected today - were Progressives.
