Letter "D" » David Hyde Pierce Quotes
«Sometimes in the most tragic situation, something just profoundly funny happens.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«I do know that if you're able to laugh in a situation, it means you have perspective on the situation... that you're not swallowed up by it. On some level, you can keep your head above water enough to see the humor in something. Being able to have a sense of humor in dark times is an indication that you can make it.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«So much of life is paradox. So much of life is neither one thing nor the other... it's both things at the same time.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«Nothing ever guarantees you anything-that's my rule. My other rule is never believe anything that anyone tells you, and then you'll never be fooled. It's not as cynical as it sounds; it's just that people always say something for a reason-maybe a nice reason, maybe a devious reason-so on that level, you can't take things at face value.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«I've been kick-boxing for exercise. And now if I turn on boxing on the television by accident, I watch it, and I love it. Whereas a year ago, I thought it was the stupidest thing I had even seen-that you would voluntarily watch these people beat the crap out of each other and think, oh, that's entertainment.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«We can't control what the ratings will be. It's like, if you're going to go skiing, do you hope you'll have a good day of skiing? Yes. Do you hope you won't break your leg? Yes.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«I would always fall down the big main staircase in our house. My favorite thing in the world was to pretend to be horribly killed at the top of it, and to fall dramatically down to the bottom of it.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«My dad had been an actor... not only had my dad been an actor, but his dad had been an actor, and my great-grandfather had been an actor. And who knows before then?»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«I am, by nature, a fairly shy person, and one of the things I had to learn was, when you're on a popular show and people feel they know you, what used to pass for shyness can be perceived as rude. I do feel more vulnerable, but people are always nice. Nobody ever comes up and throws food on me and says the show is crap.»
Author: David Hyde Pierce
«On some level in acting, what you're trying to find is truth, because when it's true is when it's also funny.»
