I never looked at Gallagher like he was a threat to me.

Video games are so popular these days, getting the opportunity to star in one is something special. More people should do it.

It's weird, I never wish anything bad upon anybody, except two or three old girlfriends.

The blessing is that everyone knows who I am because of the commercials.

I didn't really have a plan of attack when I got in college.

Like I told Howard, I can't help it that I'm beautiful.

I think the more you do this and the more comfortable you become on stage, you start speaking more and becoming more of a character in yourself.

My way of fitting in was through jokes and making people laugh.

I never looked at Gallagher like he was a threat to me.

My real name is Scott Thompson. I could have gone by that name, but when I started doing comedy I thought I needed to go by something that has a little more of a hook.

People always want to put a label on you; they always want to compare you to something.

I was the class clown at school, but at home, my family wasn't very funny.

I think it's the fact that I do something different and that I actually have some success with it. That bothers a lot of people... especially comics.

On the weekends, I would go down and play these clubs in Key West or West Palm Beach or surrounding areas of Florida and then I'd go back to school for the week.

It's our nature: Human beings like success but they hate successful people.

There's nothing wrong with trying to reach out to new fans.

Comics don't like to see other comics do well.

People do give me a hard time about my hair because it's orange and it's big.

I always thought marketing in general was an interesting kind of thing. I always liked commercials and billboards.

Carrot Top is a nickname that people call me and I thought that it was more marketable.

So I try not to look too far into the future because I think that everything happens and will happen for a reason.

I always make fun of KISS because I don't particularly think their music is anything.

When I told my friends I was going to be a comedian, they laughed at me.

My way of making people like me was to make 'em laugh.

I think, over the years, I've kind of evolved.

Almost every day, someone asks if I ever flat iron my hair. I say, 'No, because I'm afraid it wouldn't look good and wouldn't come back curly.'

I don't want to be known just as 'Carrot Top.' I don't always want to be this crazy, goofy guy.

I have a home in Orlando. That's kind of my default 'getaway' city.

I have to go out for lunch and dinner because I can't cook. I need a woman to come and save me from my cooking.

I love to shop, especially in retro stores. I have about a million pairs of old-school sports shoes like Adidas, so that's probably my biggest vice.

I think it's important for me, for my crew and for the audience to bring something new to each show. I have friends who have done the same act, word for word for word, for 20 years. I have a problem with that. I think the audience should see something new in each show.

I'd love to be animated. I've always wanted to jump off of a bridge and not be hurt, like Bugs Bunny.

I've always wanted to do a segment on a talk show. Jay Leno has been such a good friend, and if he would allow me, I'd have to get it all together, but I'd like to go on 'The Tonight Show' and do a set with no props. Or come out with a trunk and never touch it. Or come out with a clear trunk with nothing in it.

I've experienced plenty of times when something I think is funny doesn't do very well. And there are times when something I don't think is funny makes the audience laugh so hard.

I've got the long hair and kind of androgynous look. It's love-hate; it's sexy, but not sexy. So it's either you get it or you don't.

In two days, it's hard to to get the quality you would normally want for a design project.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.

When I'm doing something I love, I can lose sleep. I can go and go and go and go. My work ethic is pretty intense. But when it comes to doing something that I don't love every day, I'm not very good at it. That's called work, and I don't like work that much.

My whole life I've hated to lose, no doubt about it. I've been guilty of that since I was 6 years old, at camp. I have always played to win. That's who I am. But I never hurt anybody. The problem is when you're perceived as being too aggressive where you hurt somebody or do something improper.

The cyclic universe theory predicts no gravitational waves from the early universe.

I think it's very important for people to not judge the people you're playing. You have to find a way to love them because their story is theirs. I just don't think there would be any use in that.

You really do have the license during fashion week to wear the things that you wouldn't necessarily wear to dinner, because it really is a fashion parade.

No human thing is of serious importance.

Love is like jumping out of an airplane knowing that someone else has packed your chute. You pull the cord hoping that a canopy opens up, but it could very well be packed full of dirty laundry and a half eaten cheese sandwich.

I've had a love affair with the desert ever since I can remember. No matter what I wrote - contemporary romance, spy thriller, high fantasy - it was going to have a desert in it.

A little of what you fancy does you good

Somebody asked my friend Bob Seger, Why do you think the Eagles broke up? He said, Hotel California.

I'm ugly.

If there's one perk, it's being the quarterback of America's team and being able to make a difference off the field.
