[And on going from character to leading actor] I don't approach anything differently; I just approach it as a character. I'm always astounded at the fact that I've ever played a leading character in anything [Laughs]. And my wife concurs with that, frankly. She always thought I would be, at best, the wacky neighbor on a sitcom, so this is all just a surprise and a joy.

I’m not good with pickup lines or flirting. I don’t have that kind of self-confidence or natural charisma.

Make friends first, make sales second, make love third. In no particular order.

Actors and magicians are both performers and they represent things that are not necessarily who they are.

I ate fiberglass insulation. It wasn’t cotton candy like the guy said… my tummy itches.

I don't think my kids have to worry too much about me embarrassing them because that's not how I would want to grow up, with wacky dad showing up at school and performing for everyone.

'Anchorman'... is not grounded in anything. There is absolutely no heart to that movie, which I love.
