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
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
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
You still have that competitive thing where you want to try to make hits. That won't go away, unless the mayor of show business says my time's up.
Will Ferrell
I remember going with my mom to a random garage sale as a kid and thinking what a cool treasure hunt that whole world was. Only to transition as an adult to think, 'What a gross place that really is.'
Will Ferrell
I've got no dark secrets, I wasn't beaten up, my parents were kind to me and there was a low crime rate where we lived. Maybe that's where the comedy comes from, as some sort of reaction to the safe, boring suburbs.
Will Ferrell
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.
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 guess destiny isn't the path chosen for us, but the path we chose for ourselves.
Will Ferrell
I often don't think a lot about the ramifications of anything I do.
Will Ferrell
I'm the minority in my house sometimes. My wife is Swedish, and we go to Sweden and everyone is rattling off in Swedish. It's like, 'OK, I can just read a book.'
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
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
Once a person has a child, the first question everyone asks is: Are you going to have more children? But it basically means: Are you going to have more sex with your wife in the hopes of having children?
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
You want every movie to be a hit. But every painting isn’t a masterpiece.
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
Before you marry a person, you should first make them use a computer with slow Internet to see who they really are.
Will Ferrell
I don't really think in absolutes.
Will Ferrell
What about Santa's cookies? I suppose 'parents' eat those, too?
