Everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart, and all that will be left of you is what was in your heart.

I can be your best friend or your worst enemy. You seem to prefer the latter.

I don't think human beings learn anything without desperation. Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything or creating anything. Period. If you ain't desperate at some point, you ain't interesting.

I wrote myself a check for ten million dollars for acting services rendered and dated it Thanksgiving 1995. I put it in my wallet and it deteriorated. And then, just before Thanksgiving 1995, I found out I was going to make ten million dollars for Dumb & Dumber. I put that check in the casket with my father because it was our dream together.

It's nice to finally get scripts offered to me that aren't the ones Tom Hanks wipes his butt with.

My career has been in a weird kind of like low-flying under the radar-kind of place. I never made it on "Saturday Night Live" where all my friends did.

I've always believed that you can funnel good things toward yourself by thinking positiviely.
