[On Jim Carrey]: He has tremendous charm. He has an enormous heart, just a big big heart. I think that is the thing. I think if you look at his other work you can see that there, which is what makes his characters more then just mimicry. I think that is w...
Laura Linney
(On working with Jim Carrey) "You can`t do the goofy stuff he does without being a good actor. Exciting to work with, but hard. You gotta find a way to work with him. He`s so frickin` intense all the time that you gotta get a break from it once in a while...
Paul Giamatti
There is something inherently tough about Americans. They will not accept defeat. The astronauts of Apollo 13 (1995) would not give up, John Nash in A Beautiful Mind (2001) would not give up, and Jim Braddock would not surrender to poverty.
Ron Howard
I`m sure you`ve heard that description, `Jimmy Stewart from Mars.` Yes. Because a part of him is really so sweet and pure and innocent. He`d tell me my take was `Jim-dandy`, or `Doggone it, Sherilyn, that was cool`. His direction is abstract. He doesn`t e...
Sherilyn Fenn
My intention was just to be a good adversary for Arnold to match. To match and be superior in character that you would believe that I could get the upper hand on him or else the whole movie wouldn`t work. I obviously had a great deal of faith in Jim Camer...
Robert Patrick
Theater really is my first love. I love the stage, performing for an audience. Some of my favorite credits would have to be the Shakespeare work I did in New York and To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday. I also loved working with Jim Henson on Muppets Take Ma...
Gates McFadden
Spending time with Jim on a stage is an incredibly weird experience! I found myself unable to act seriously! Hard to shoot with the master of comedy!
Jennifer Tilly
Being called Jim made it easier for Oliver [Oliver Stone] and probably for me. In the end that approach was healthy because I don`t believe you`ve got to go out and shoot dope to play Jim Morrison. - On if the rumors were true about Kilmer insisting being...

Val Kilmer
As for me, I like being behind the camera instead of in front of it. I can wear what I want. Will I act again? I never say never. I like doing things where I can stretch and go in different directions. I`m not looking to take it easy. Like the Marines on ...
Clint Eastwood
I do firmly believe that I`ve been overlooked, especially in "Terminator." Jim Cameron was saying to me at the time, "I don`t know Michael why you are not being offered more movies now. All of us expected it, you know?" But now, five or six years later, w...
Michael Biehn
[On Jim Henson]: He envisioned a world where bears could tell jokes, chickens could sing, pigs could be stars and they all could ride bicycles.
Frank Oz
My favorite make-up man Jim, does them [the Ktarian horns], and he tells me jokes and lets me eat his jelly-bellies even before lunch (sorry mom).
Scarlett Pomers
I listened to a lot of records. I smoked quite a few cigarettes and that - the smoking - stayed with me unfortunately! And I copied his voice in much the same way as I would learn an accent. With a lot of work, I got it. I found Jim`s voice. Whenever peop...
Val Kilmer
[on James Garner] If men only knew what`s appealing to a woman is how a man makes her feel about herself. Jim is funny and dear and he laughs at my jokes. That`s what makes Jim sexy; it doesn`t change with years.

Sally Field
I do a lot of teen shows and voice over work for animation, so when I got the part in "The Number 23" it was really cool because now I get to be in a movie with Jim Carrey. Acting in this movie was really a learning experience for me. I still played this ...
Paul Butcher
[in 1936, on his appeal to children, who empathized with the monster] I don`t really scare them any more than do Jungle Jim, Dan Dunn, Tarzan, and the other heroes of the comic sections.
Boris Karloff
People like Jim Jarmusch or Spike Jonze make the kind of American cinema that really interests me. And working with them has, so far, been the only thing I haven`t been able to do. But other than that I`m perfectly happy with where I am.
Robert Carlyle
When I was trying to come up with the voices for Patty and Selma I asked Jim Brooks what he wanted and he said `They suck the joy out of everything`.
Julie Kavner
People want comedians to be funny. I mean I love Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind but it ain`t a better performance than in Dumb And Dumber. I can do serious roles sometimes in other people`s movies but not in one of my own. I don`t wan...
Chris Rock
If you look at a lot of the pieces on "The Muppet Show" (1976) that came from Jim, there was a tremendous sweetness about them, and that`s unique to Jim. Jim was never wimpy. He had a strength to his sweetness... that was great.

Don`t exercise much. It`s not really funny.[Jim] Carrey looks like he`s in pretty good shape, but traditionally, funny guys have never been buff. Why do people do yoga? It clears their minds. I embrace the clutter in my head. I like it. What funny guy`s g...
Chris Rock
[On being asked what it was like working with Hugh Grant] "Hugh was brilliant. He helped me a lot by giving me ideas and teaching me something new every day. He really helped me get into my role. He`s my idol now. Him and Jim Carrey - I`d like to work wit...
Nicholas Hoult
We`re all very sensitive that Jim has the shortest history with the band. He wants to be somewhat of a free agent. I`m just going to let time dictate how Jim`s future evolves.
