More quotes by Will Ferrell
I don't know about living on an automatic pilot, but I've had times where I've decided to just test myself and my mettle, and for no good reason other than it's what life is. Even before I was acting, I had, like, one day in high school I decided to just show them my pajamas, just for no good reason.

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 grew up in an entertainment family, and so I saw how susceptible you are to the ups and downs of this business.

In junior high P.E., I was way too shy to take a shower in front of the other kids. It was a horribly awkward time - body hair, odors... So I'd go from my sweaty shirt back into my regular clothes and have to continue the day.

I think with the success of, like, every summer there has been a couple R-rated comedies that have done so well I think it is so nice to see that people are turning out to see these movies, and it doesn't seem to be as big a stigma with the studios anymore.

Will Ferrell
A lot of people have gotten into comedy because of certain influences in their lives or events that were painful, and I really have wracked my brain to figure it out. I pretty much have had a normal childhood. Maybe it was too normal.
Will Ferrell
I'm a cotton-headed ninny muggins.
Will Ferrell
I always just forced myself to do crazy things in public. In college I would push an overhead projector across campus with my pants just low enough to show my butt. Then my friend would incite the crowd to be like, 'Look at that idiot!' That's how I got over being shy.
Will Ferrell
I'm a sex addict. It's my cross to bear. It's a real disease with doctors and medicine and everything!
Will Ferrell
I don't even consider myself an impressionist, really.
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
But for fatherhood advice, try to look your child in the eye.... Get to know their name that becomes important when you want something. And remember to feed them. That's about all you need.
Will Ferrell
Enjoy the little fun things - like taking your kids to school - before they're all grown up.
Will Ferrell
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.
Will Ferrell
I left home to go to college, and then I moved back home. I moved back for three years from 21 to 24.
Will Ferrell
I want to thank Jesus, and by Jesus I mean Jesus Hernandez, my bodyguard
Will Ferrell
I think it just came with me evolving as a person and me understanding that it's not right to judge or to say anything derogatory about other people, especially if I don't know them.
