Zach Galifianakis
I just could just shave my beard, and nobody would recognize me. Although I look like Jodie Foster.
Zach Galifianakis
I would have changed my last name if being famous were my goal.
Zach Galifianakis
It's not good for comedy to be like, 'Thanks for liking me'. Being popular is poison.

I've never been in love... But I imagine it's similar to the feeling you get when you see your waiter arriving with your food

My father used to beat me with his belt...while it was still on him.

I like dark comedies. That's why I like the Wayans Brothers.
Zach Galifianakis
I kind of put myself out there as is. I'm a quiet person. I don't know if that's surprising. I'm a Pilates junkie.
Zach Galifianakis
My dad doesn't get any of my jokes. He laughs at them, but he doesn't understand them. He's just laughing because people around him are laughing.
