Adam Scott Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Adam Scott:

You know, writing is really difficult, and it takes a real patience and a skill. I don't know if I have that. I admire it in others, so much, and I envy it.

I came to Los Angeles to be an actor, which is, at best, a gamble.

Adam Scott

As far as base humiliation goes, acting is a tough business. It's a tough, embarrassing thing to do for a living when you're starting out, and you better not have any ego or pride, because that will be wiped away clean by utter devastation.

Adam Scott

More and more, you're seeing television shows that are better than 99% of the movies out there. I mean, you watch something like the last couple of seasons of 'The Sopranos,' which is some of the most sophisticated writing I've ever seen filmed and some of the best filmmaking I've ever seen - and it's a TV show.

For a lot of people, divorce is an incredibly healthy move to make in your life.

Adam Scott

For me to get a lead role in a real movie is something to jump at. It's not like I get to do that all of the time.

Adam Scott

I just like staying at home and eating and watching movies and running around in the back yard.

Adam Scott

If I look at it and feel there is someone who can do it better, I won't do it. Whether it's 'Party Down' or 'Piranha 3-D,' I'm going to bring something to it to make it special.

Adam Scott

Dr. Bronner's is the best. My mom had Dr. Bronner's around since I was a little kid, and I've used it in the shower as soap ever since.

Adam Scott

I was a political junkie, and it just exhausted me, and after Obama won, I just kind of unplugged from all of that for a while.

Adam Scott

AirPods have squirmed their way into my life. I use them every day, and I always know where they are and if they're charged or not.

Adam Scott

My brother really shaped my musical taste when I was younger. He turned me on to classic rock like Led Zeppelin, and then he got me into R.E.M. and U2.

Adam Scott

I think one of the great things about 'Bridesmaids' is that it's a big studio comedy, but all of the relationships in it are so grounded that you're watching a real movie.

Adam Scott

There was a lot of improvisation on 'Step Brothers.' I remember it being really frightening, and it took me a long time to get used to it and grow to be able to hold my own. But I remember when it was done feeling like, 'I don't know if I ever want to go back to working another way.'

Adam Scott

The great thing about New York is that you don't have to set out to do anything. Whenever I go without the kids, I walk all day and see the most interesting stuff. There's always some kind of drama playing out.

Adam Scott

Sometimes people's behavior is seemingly unexplainable.

Adam Scott

I've learned, over the years, to go after the parts where I feel I can add something.

Adam Scott

I think when you're on a network show, it's crazy how different it is... just being on a network show that reaches that many people. It's not like I'm very famous, but seemingly overnight, I would get recognized more, and it was really weird.

Adam Scott

I'm a big consumer of media and content online.

Adam Scott

I have a recurring dream where I'm on the run for a horrible thing I did years and years ago. Like, in the dream... because the thing I did was so long ago that it's just a faint memory in my dream, so I'm sort of remembering it as I'm on the run from the police. And I'm totally guilty of it.

Adam Scott

What could be said about 'Party Down?' So many things. It was such a good idea - a different party every week is such a slam-dunk of an idea that I couldn't believe it had not been done yet. The creators of it are my friends.

Adam Scott

I think podcasting is here to stay.

Adam Scott

I got really into Martin Scorsese as a teenager, so then it was kind of the whole reason I wanted to be an actor. Just like tons of young actors, I think, get freaked out by the Scorsese/DeNiro movies. I loved all his movies in the '90s, too. Then I got a part in 'The Aviator' and couldn't believe it.

Adam Scott

I think 'Eastbound & Down' is one of the great television shows, ever.

Adam Scott

I had a double bacon cheeseburger at Chili's, and I lost a tooth in it. My tooth!

Adam Scott

I was a chubby kid.

Adam Scott

I was a pretentious teenager, so of course I had, you know, 'Raging Bull' posters and all of that. 'Raging Bull' is not a pretentious movie, but me having the poster was a pretentious action. I even grew a goatee and had a Knicks cap, because I thought I wanted to be like Spike Lee.

Adam Scott

It's the worst noise in the world: me analyzing the reasons for making a podcast about U2.

Adam Scott

And if you get caught up in combing the Internet for what people think of you or how people perceive you, I think that's a slippery slope.

Adam Scott

'Parks and Rec' is definitely a mainstream show - the group that watches it on TV on Thursday night is small, but the audience that watches it on things like Hulu, Netflix, and Tivo is enormous.

Adam Scott

I guess I'm used to TV where we don't really rehearse. You block it out, and then you just start shooting.

Adam Scott

I like having a duty. I'm a terrible cook, but when people come over, if I'm falling between the cracks socially, I can always run away to my job.

Adam Scott

Like, on the 'Parks And Rec' set, I still feel like I'm a guest star. Being a fan of the show, it's really surreal to be on the set and see that it's not real, and getting to know the actors and they're not their characters.

Adam Scott

It was just really fun doing 'Step Brothers,' and then 'Party Down' came a year later. I was having so much fun. I loved the people and the comedy community.

Adam Scott

My upbringing was healthy and terrific.

Adam Scott

I used to be into the Grateful Dead, so I understand the Phish thing.

Adam Scott

If I'm going to be away from my family, I'd rather it be working with my friends.
