My dad loved to laugh. He was very funny and very silly.
I think that there are a lot of great studio people but the fewer voices in my head when I'm getting out a draft, the better. I just get it out and then I'll listen to all manner of good ideas. And that's what happens, too, when I'm touring and doing a character on stage.
Well, I like how people talk. I like language. You know, Linda Richman spoke in Yiddish.
I'm bigger than you! I'm higher on the food chain - get in my belly!
People ask me to record their answering machines all the time. I love it. It's a miracle to me that people want to hear back those characters.
I've been involved with Shrek for eleven years, so you'd better like Shrek if you're going to be involved with it for eleven years. I do, I like it a great deal, so I enjoy it.
My father was a very funny man, and one of my strongest recollections is hearing him laugh. He didn't like people who had no sense of humour.
My Dad was from Liverpool, and he picked it up in the army. He'd often come out with this stuff.
I would love to be a father. I had a great father who taught me how gratifying that is. I'm not going to deny myself that. I think I'd be good at it. Everybody wants that experience. I definitely do.
I think that Scottish people, like Canadians, are often misunderstood and what I like about my Scottish friends and relatives is how quickly it can go from love to anger. It's a great dynamic.
I think when I have kids and grandchildren I will be very proud to have them watch this movie.
Europe is weird songs that would never make it in America.
Canada is a country of ingredients without a cuisine; we're a country with musicians without an indigenous instrument; Toronto's a city that doesn't even have a dish named after it.
Everywhere I go, people come up to me on the street and ask me if there’s going to be another one!
I do miss Saturday Night Live, that's for sure. There's nothing like it. I just hosted, and I felt I'd only been away for a week.
This crazy thing called love...
I've been frozen for 30 years. I've got to see if my bits and pieces are still working.
I had done Shrek as a Canadian and I'm very proud to be Canadian, but I knew I could give more to it.
Austin sounds a little bit like Aston Martin, which is the type of car James Bond would drive.
I like my privacy. I love being a part of [films], but when I'm not doing stuff, I like to go away. I enjoy being a person, a great deal.
I can be described as many things, but no description of me is complete without saying 'Englishman.' My parents were from Liverpool and emigrated to Canada before I was born.
Justin Timberlake is the single most talented human being I've ever met in my life, and it sickens me. He is, like, 12 years old or something! He has 0 percent body fat, he is musically gifted, he has a great ear for accents, and he is hilarious.
And I love Mel Brooks. My Dad loved his movies, too, they're awesome, the kind of thing that if you're in for ten minutes, you're in for two hours.
Why must I be surrounded by frickin' idiots?
I play the ukulele. I have a great group of friends, and we do things like have battles of the bands - me sometimes on ukulele, but mostly on drums.
