Charlie Day's Quotes

• Well, yeah. The barometer is always whether or not you find it funny. There's plenty of scripts that deal with similar subject matter that I find not funny at all, or way over the top. The trick in my opinion to a really good comedy is when it walks up to that line, and you're always wondering, "Are they going to step over it? Are they going to go too far?" That balancing act of, "I can't believe they're getting away with this, why aren't they falling?" If you don't come close enough to the line, then it's almost too safe and predictable. If you go way over it, then nobody cares to watch it. You could make a really funny movie or episode about the darkest things in the world and if you just handle it the right way it's going to be fine.
• The truth is that everybody's a little bit damaged in some way or another.
• I'm choosing my words carefully cause I'm sure, when it comes to being naked with Jennifer Aniston, they will be printed. But, believe it or not, it was just really silly, fun, funny and entertaining, at the end of the day.
• You catch yourself acting with these people that you've watched and loved in movies for years, and you feel truly blessed to be in that position.
• As an actor, sometimes you feel a pressure to change yourself from time to time.
