More quotes by 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.

Often times I'm confronted with a quote that I don't remember saying. So, on one hand it's very flattering, it is just so surreal.

Saturday Night Live is such a comedy boot camp in a way, because you get to work with so many different people who come in to host the show and you get thrown into so many situations and learn how to think on your feet, so filmmaking actually feels slow, in a good way.
