Zitat des Tages von T. J. Miller:
Slowly but surely, I went through different phases of fame, and each rises you further into isolation and alienation.
I don't believe in alcohol. It's a sort of a medicinal necessity for the human condition, none of that stuff. I'm not a gambling man.
When you get into a car, and there's trash, or it's dirty, or one of the hubcaps is off, you're like, 'Come on, dude.' Every woman likes the confidence and self-respect that says, 'I get oil changes. I look after my vehicle.' That's what I recommend: Act like you don't care, but take care of your body.
It is good to connect to someone who reminds you that you have some real authenticity.
I was the Head Boy of East High School in 1999. I represent 303 - the area code, not the band - Mile High, until I die. I'm 31, a comedian; I juggle, but I don't glove it. I think waxed mustaches run a very thin line between hipster and 1800s barkeep.
There's sketch, improv, writing, acting, music, and badminton. Those are the seven forms of comedy.
I wouldn't want to be Superman. Batman would be cool. But the one I've always wanted to play is the Joker. There is a maniacal and dangerous side to me.
It doesn't matter to me if I'm in love with my performance, so I watch all of my performances to understand and learn from them and figure out what's working and what's not. And I see the movies that I'm in in the theater a lot.
I think by now if people hire me, they know I'm going to improvise. I'm an improviser by trade.
I am trying to do comedy on every single medium. I consider myself a public servant.
A mother will come up to me and say, 'Will you meet my son? He loves you. He watched 'How to Train Your Dragon' a thousand times.'
'Yogi Bear' changed my life in ways that I can't explain because it's not a full feature on me. 'Yogi Bear' - there's everything before 'Yogi Bear,' and there's everything after 'Yogi Bear.' Like a major car accident, or the birth of Christ.
If you're a psychologist, you can instrumentally change peoples lives for the better. But you can only do that for about 300 people to maybe a thousand people - if you're really prolific and you're working really hard.
Listen to my voice - I sound like I'm permanently congested.
I find Denver's hipster scene to be fully unique.
Hollywood is the only thing more ridiculous than Silicon Valley. There's nowhere else where it's stranger.
Always farm fresh eggs, never store bought.
Life is hard. Not great. Kind of tragic.
If there is one thing that makes me unique, it's that I riff a lot.
Mucinex were like, 'Would you like to be the Mucinex man? You sound like you're sick right now'. In each spot, they give me a little bit of room to do something strange. And in a world of fractured mediums, where there is no zeitgeist, and you get your comedy from your phone, it's all content.
I don't know that I would host the Golden Globes or the Emmys because I don't think they have the appreciation for irreverence that the Critics Choice does.
'Guardians of the Galaxy' is tongue-in-cheek and has a sense of humor about itself. But it's nothing like 'Deadpool.' 'Deadpool' is this super-bizarre thing. The best thing about it is that it's R-rated.
I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates.
Russell Brand is lovely, even though he's a weirdo.
Everybody asks me what it was like to be in my underwear for my network television debut.
Is it possible to have negative self-awareness?
I've stated that it's possible the only reason I'm in show business is that I have such a strange, particular head of hair. That, and I can grow a red beard.
I sound like a chain-smoking drag queen after a hard night of singing 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon'.
We try and reflect that there's a lot of optimism, there's a lot of positive things that are happening in 'Silicon Valley'.
I was in 'Goodwin Games,' which was canceled, and a few other things, so I kind of swore off television unless I was writing or producing it.
To become the best comedian, I must be well-rounded.
We're not a nation divided: we're a nation broken, and anything broken can be fixed.
I don't really know how to act that much. I'm quite good at comedy, but it's mostly acting naturally.
Fame is very isolating. It changes your reality.
I would say that awards are for children. Because children need a tangible representation of their achievement. And as adults, you have to settle for the respect and admiration of your peers.
I know that, as a comedian, I've made great strides because I've worked as hard as a person can work at being at least wildly amusing.
