The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Bob Odenkirk
- All people are sad clowns. That’s the key to comedy – and it’s a buffer against reality.
- To me, great writing – and when you can really make something wonderful out of it as an actor – is when your character has a sense of self-awareness. It doesn’t necessarily have to arc. It doesn’t have to grow.
- I can’t really say how big the cult is. But I’m proud of it. I’m proud that it has a life.
- I think that cable TV is a great venue to do something interesting.
- I think independent movies are actually very challenging right now, because it was this huge scene and it was great for a few years. Then, it was totally co-opted by the studios. Now, it’s become very corporate, the independent scene.
- I enjoy crude behaviour and language. I revel in it.
- You make you work for yourself. It’s the feeling of, ‘If nobody ever saw it, that’d be fine, too.’
- I went to New York in ’87 to write for ‘Saturday Night Live.’
- Humans are ridiculous. We’re all pathetic strivers who will fall short. If you can accept that, it’s optimistic because you can shoot for the moon and know you’re never going to get there, and that’s OK.
- I’m hypersensitive to negativity and duplicity, and I want to push it away by writing comedy. Maybe that hypersensitivity comes across and allows me to play dastardly, multi-layered people.
