Mike Myers

Justin Timberlake is the single most talented human being I've ever met in my life, and it sickens me. He is, like, 12 years old or something! He has 0 percent body fat, he is musically gifted, he has a great ear for accents, and he is hilarious.

In 1991, my father passed away and I went on a spiritual quest. It was a light one, not too terribly deep because I'm not terribly deep, and neither was my father.

On my death bed, I'm not going to say, 'God I wish I did more movies.' I'm perfectly happy I was present for the ones I did.

I can be described as many things, but no description of me is complete without saying 'Englishman.' My parents were from Liverpool and emigrated to Canada before I was born.

I knew I wanted to be a father; I didn't know it was going to be this awesome or that my kid would come out so beautiful and lovely.

The interesting thing about life is, there is what you think is going to happen, and what actually happens.

Once I turned 35, I got the bonus of some wisdom and began to accept life on its own terms.

Dad was in the British Army and my mom was in the Royal Air Force, so both of my parents believed in discipline.

If I went by all the rejection I've had in my career, I should have given up a long time ago.

I love making comedy. I never stopped loving it. I will continue to love it and I can't believe that I get to do it.

My dad sold encyclopedias and my mom worked in a factory office.

I grew up in Toronto and as long as I can remember, as long as there was cable, even those old cable boxes that were wired to the TV, there have been Bollywood movies on Toronto TV.

I'm a comedic actor, not to mix words, but it's something I think about. A comedic actor. I like to think that Christopher Guest, Phil Hartman, Peter Sellers and Alec Guinness are comedic actors. And Dan Aykroyd, too. Those are my heroes.

Marriage can be viewed as the waiting room for death.

With fame there is a crosswire between intensity and intimacy. You have decoy intimacy, but you are also very much alone.

My father was always a straight-up funny guy. He was silly. He was my inspiration.

I like smart jokes, I like dumb jokes, and I like dumb jokes done smartly.

And I love Mel Brooks. My Dad loved his movies, too, they're awesome, the kind of thing that if you're in for ten minutes, you're in for two hours.

And I thought, when I have kids, that's the sort of well told, silly, and fun fairy tale that I would want to take them to. But it was an amazing experience. And I think Shrek is a real classic, a fairy tale classic.

Austin sounds a little bit like Aston Martin, which is the type of car James Bond would drive.
