More quotes by 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
Happens I am very political. I have deep political instincts.
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.
Will Ferrell
I think whatever an artist does, it just has to be quality and good. I think the way Kanye's doing what he's doing with the Auto-Tune is actually creative because he just writes good melodies. He just writes good songs. He's just gifted.
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
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
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
Black, white, yellow, brown - we wanted somebody who would do right by us. And I think because Obama was that person, whether he was black or white, he was chosen
Will Ferrell
If you set up an environment where failing is encouraged then you want to try everything. It's obviously the best way to work.
Will Ferrell
I'm always in these situations where I forget to separate what is pitched as an idea to the fact that I'm actually going to have to execute it.
Will Ferrell
I was never a class clown or anything like that, but I do remember being in the first grade and my teacher, Mr. Chad, told the class one day that we were going to do some exercises. He meant math exercises, but I stood up and started doing jumping jacks. To this day, I don't know what possessed me to do that, but all my friends cracked up.
Will Ferrell
I want to make hip-hop that can use guitars and soul and jazz and just fuse it all together. And I want to make this whole new sound that's going to shock the world. Unfortunately, the masses didn't receive it.
Will Ferrell
I don't even consider myself an impressionist, really.
Will Ferrell
I think my new iPhone 5S is broken. I pressed the home button and I'm still at work
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
What about Santa's cookies? I suppose 'parents' eat those, too?
Will Ferrell
I've always associated consciousness with artists like Bob Marley or Joni Mitchell or Bob Dylan. You know, artists that really talked about what was going on in the world and really artists that are timeless.
Will Ferrell
There's nothing sexy about Orange County.
Will Ferrell
I just kind of have a comedic looking body, I guess. If anything I really have to exercise just to not look too fudgy, otherwise I would just keep going and going.
Will Ferrell
No matter how much you screw up your life, you can fix it.
