I'm a cotton-headed ninny muggins.
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 have the physique a lot of people dream about having. It's my obligation to share it with the world.
Will Ferrell
It's very easy for me to play silly, but to reveal something closer to you, that's so much harder.
Will Ferrell
Why not work with your friends? It's working with people you know, and you share the same sensibility.

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'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'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've not been able to avoid periods of time where I felt super-lonely. Luckily, I have a side that is able to always see the glass as half-full.
Will Ferrell
One of the challenges you will face is finding a job in our depressed economy, ... In fact, the chances of finding a job are about as good as finding weapons of mass destruction in the Iraqi desert -- slim and none, and slim just left the building.
Will Ferrell
I am a bit of a gourmet chef. I love cooking mostly Thai food. And a lot of times on movies, you have these trailers that have these little ovens and kitchenettes. A lot of actors never use them, but I would cook lunch just about every day.
Will Ferrell
I laugh like a fool when I watch a movie that I've done several years down the road when it's on cable, i'll just watch and sadly laugh along.
Will Ferrell
I guess ultimately a lot of comedians just wanna be taken seriously.
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.
