Bill Murray quotes - page 2

Awards are meaningless to me, and I have nothing but disdain for anyone who actively campaigns to get one. (Bill Murray)
There are people who drove me crazy, but they got the job done. And when I see that person again, I nod my head. Respect. View quote
Bill Murray
But I can only take so much TV, because there is so much advice. I find people will preach about virtually anything - your diet, how to live your life, how to improve your golf. The lot. I have always had a thing against the Mister Know-It-Alls. View quote
Bill Murray
Somewhere there's a score being kept, so you have an obligation to live life as well as you can, be as engaged as you can. View quote
Bill Murray
I don't want to be that guy mumbling into his drink at a bar. View quote
Bill Murray
When the phone started ringing too many times, I had to take it back to what I can handle. I take my chances on a job or a person as opposed to a situation. I don't like to have a situation placed over my head. View quote
Bill Murray
While I have felt lonely many times in my life, the oddest feeling of all was after my mother, Lucille, died. My father had already died, but I always had some attachment to our big family while she was alive. It seems strange to say now that I felt so lonely, yet I did. View quote
Bill Murray
People only talk about what a joyous experience it is, but there is terror: Your life, as you know it, is over. It's over the day that child is born. It's over, and something completely new starts. View quote
Bill Murray
I went to Second City, where you learned to make the other actor look good so you looked good and National Lampoon, where you had to create everything out of nothing, and SNL, where you couldn't make any mistakes, and you learned what collaboration was. View quote
Bill Murray
I think all phases of one's career are serious if you take it seriously no matter if you are doing high profile dramatic pieces or not. View quote
Bill Murray
One of the things I like about acting is that, in a funny way, I come back to myself. (Bill Murray)
People say I'm difficult and sometimes that's a badge of honour. View quote
Bill Murray
In Japan, you have no idea what they are saying, and they can't help you either. Nothing makes any sense. They're very polite, but you feel like a joke is being played on you the entire time you're there. View quote
Bill Murray
The studios don't seem to foster good writing. They're not so interested in that, but they're more interested in what worked most recently. They're definitely very serious about making money, and that's not a wrong thing, but you don't have to make money the same way all the time. View quote
Bill Murray
Whenever I think of the high salaries we are paid as film actors, I think it is for the travel, the time away, and any trouble you get into through being well known. It's not for the acting, that's for sure. View quote
Bill Murray
Parties are only bad when a fight breaks out, when men fight over women or vice versa. Someone takes a fall, an ambulance comes, and the police arrive. If you can avoid those things, pretty much all behaviour is acceptable. View quote
Bill Murray
The best way to teach your kids about taxes is by eating 30% of their ice cream. View quote
Bill Murray
It's not just make love to whomever you're with, it's just love whomever you're with. View quote
Bill Murray
I think romance basically starts with respect. And new romance always starts with respect. View quote
Bill Murray
Co-written with John Byrum based on the novel by W. Somerset Maugham. View quote
Bill Murray
'Groundhog Day' was one of the greatest scripts ever written. It didn't even get nominated for an Academy Award. (Bill Murray)
Don't think about your errors or failures; otherwise, you'll never do a thing. View quote
Bill Murray
I'm a nut, but not just a nut. View quote
Bill Murray
All of us kids ended up 'doing Mom.' There are four of us who've tried show business. Five if you insist on counting my sister the nun, who does liturgical dance. View quote
Bill Murray
Here's the thing, you just have to drive a lot faster, and if you don't get there, we're both fired. View quote
Bill Murray
