Jim Carrey
[on Kay Kendall] She was without question the greatest female clown we ever had -- apart from someone like Beatrice Lillie, whom your audience won`t have heard of. Or Cicely Courtneidge.
Dirk Bogarde
I desperately hate one thing about my body. I have size 11 feet. Yeah, it sucks, because I see all these super cute shoes in the stores: Guccis, YSLs, Manolos. And when they bring them out in my size, they look like clown shoes.
Paris Hilton
We all have our distinct things. Leaf [brother Joaquin Phoenix] was the family clown--very witty, very smart. Mom had to work a lot, so Rainbow [sister Rain Phoenix] was the mother and the older sister and trendsetter. Liberty [sister Liberty Phoenix] was...
River Phoenix
[On playing "The Joker" in The Dark Knight (2008)] The Joker, so far, is definitely the most fun I`ve had with any character. He`s just out of control -- no empathy, he`s a sociopath, uh, a psychotic, mass-murdering clown. And, uh, I`m just thoroughly, th...
Heath Ledger
I`ve never been naturally fashion conscious. I`m the kind of person who sees a whole outfit in a magazine, runs out and buys it but looks like a clown. I`m not like Gwyneth and all those fashion-savvy girls, although someone told me they all have stylists...
Brooke Shields
I`d much rather be in a comedy. In my view, comedy wins out in the long run. I`m not sure I`m a good enough actor to play real tragedy, so I bring a comic element to most things as my answer to the world`s problems. I`m not a clown, though. I love goofing...
Will Ferrell
I think of myself as an intelligent, sensitive human being with the soul of a clown which always forces me to blow it at the most crucial moments.
Jim Morrison
The challenge in playing Bess [in Breaking the Waves] is that, in physical, psychological, intellectual, moral, ethical and political terms, she`s a disaster - part saint, part clown. But she has an infinite capacity to love and believe. I tried to make t...
Emily Watson
In high school, I was the class comedian as opposed to the class clown. The difference is, the class clown is the guy who drops his pants at the football game, the class comedian is the guy who talked him into it.
Billy Crystal

Billy Crystal
I`ve always been misrepresented. You know, I could dress in a clown costume and laugh with the happy people but they`d still say I`m a dark personality.
Tim Burton
You never really meet a human being until you live with them or know them for awhile, so this is my clown and they understand that and so these interviews don`t bother them.
Shia LaBeouf
This is not your father`s miniature golf course. There are no windmills and clown`s mouths to hit the ball through. This new course will be challenging.
Aubrie Apple
They think I`m being serious when actually I`m a very big clown. But you have to know me to see that. I`m constantly cracking up and cracking everybody else around me up.
Lenny Kravitz
They saw him as the class clown. He was tall and scrawny and always playing practical jokes on teachers. The girls laughed at him but never fancied him.
Todd Nelson
The difference between me and them is that I`ll look at Jesse Jackson and I`ll see four Jesse Jacksons, and they`ll just see one, the clown ambulance chaser.
Chris Matthews
My father was a promoter of Fresh Fest, and they needed an opening act. He got me a slot as a dancer. We tried it out the first time in Atlanta and the crowd went crazy. I was the opening clown.
Jermaine Dupri
If there are twelve clowns in a ring, you can jump in the middle and start reciting Shakespeare, but to the audience, you`ll just be the thirteenth clownAdam Walinsky
If by chance some day you`re not feeling well and you should remember some silly thing I`ve said or done and it brings back a smile to your face or a chuckle to your heart, then my purpose as your clown has been fulfilled.
Red Skelton
I`ve said this before, that, when you`re in school and you`re the class clown, men are really good at making fun at other people and women are really good at making fun of themselves.
