QUOTES:

[on his role in Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd (2003)] I like playing villains – villains that aren’t that bright, you know?..Okay, this is the guy. I’m thinking I can finally bring some mustaches out of the drawer.This is set in the mid-’80s. Glasses down to here. And the mustache is somewhere between [Adolf Hitler] and ]Groucho Marx].
One of the biggest misconceptions about me is that I’m a comedian, which I’m not. A comedian is someone who can stand up in front of an audience and make you laugh. I’ve never done stand-up and I never will. I’m a comic actor. My comedy comes through my characters.

I would love to work with Sir Anthony Hopkins. How and why that would happen in a comedy I’m not sure–why he would be dragged over to my side, or I’d be be dragged over to his side.

At the end of the day, even if my part is a bit goofy, the key thing is that I’m doing what I love to do, and that’s to make people laugh.
