The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Tony Shalhoub
- I come from a really big family, my father was a businessman and what he always instilled in us was to be your own boss. My father built up his business, and he was by no means a rich man, but he figured out how to work four-and-a-half days a week.
- You’re not really necessarily the coolest guy in their life. You are a conduit to the really cool people.
- I was one of those people who put too much emphasis on work and career and material possessions, and it took its toll on all my relationships, on my physical health, my emotional and mental health.
- All I wanted with that film was to represent the possibility that there might be normal people who are Muslim or Arab with the same fears, responsibilities, hopes.
- To my fellow nominees, whoever they are – I’m not that familiar with their work – I just want to say, there’s always next year – except, you know, for Ray Romano .
- ‘Longtime Companion’ was really the first movie that I know of that addressed the problem of AIDS. This was back in the ’80s that we did this.
- I’ve been lucky that even when I was younger, just because of my look or whatever, I was afforded the opportunity or called on to try. ‘Can you do this Hispanic character?’ ‘Can you do this Italian character?’ ‘Can you do this Jewish-American character?’ I just had to develop a facility for their accents.
- I try to do other characters that are different from Monk, obviously, because I’d like to be remembered for more than just that.
- You make certain assumptions as a parent. And you kind of think, at a certain point, you’ve figured things out. And then all of a sudden, that person that you raised and nurtured and thought that you knew is someone else completely.
- I was in my first play when I was 6. My older sister was in a high-school production of ‘The King and I.’ They needed children for a scene, so she brought me in. I had a costume and a couple of serious lines that got a laugh. I loved the feeling.
