Mark Hamill’s 5 most popular quotes
- People think being remembered most for one character is a negative thing, but I don’t. I never expected to be remembered for anything!
- Character roles only indicate that they’re very different from who you are as a person, and for me, it’s fun hiding behind characters that are so unlike who I am.
- I debated in high school! If you told things that weren’t true or just made things out of whole cloth, you were penalized. It’s too bad they don’t apply the same standards to presidential candidates as they do to high school students.
- I can’t tell you how much we laughed on the set to have Alec Guinness in a scene with a big, furry dog that’s flying a spaceship.
- I never saw myself so much as an actor. I wanted to be a cartoonist like Charles Schulz and create my own world and be able to have a studio at home and not commute and be able to be with my family.
