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.

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.

At the end, the realization is that she had to get to a place in her life where she could drop her guard and make peace with the fact that whether she had a small amount of time, that she had to kind of live it completely through, instead of living by the rules.

President Johnson and I have a lot in common. We were both born in small towns and we're both fortunate in the fact that we think we married above ourselves.

The fact is I've been in Massachusetts for the last two weeks, and it seems over the last few days that the price is increasing by the hour at the pump, so there needs to be an aggressive investigation.

In fact, it is a farce to call any being virtuous whose virtues do not result from the exercise of its own reason.

Working-class Americans have waited too long, close to a decade in fact, for an increase in the minimum wage. This has been the second longest period without a pay raise since the Federal minimum wage law was first enacted in 1938.

The fact is, Latinos now own their own lives and I believe they can afford to look back without judgment.

The fact that it's science fiction gives you the license to do anything you want to do.

It has to do with the fact that Ford, for all his greatness, is an Irish egomaniac, as anyone who knows him will say.

I never knew a more presumptuous person than myself. The fact that I say that shows that what I say is true.

I think the fact that I'm so well known to be gay makes it very difficult to have a convincing relationship with a woman on screen. It wouldn't be at all difficult for me to kiss a woman - I'll kiss a frog if you like.

People expect us to be different, but we're not. We're very similar people, and it's because we're so similar and close to each other that we make each other laugh - in fact we make each other laugh more than we make anyone else laugh.

I can't tell you how hard I worked the last year. In fact, I worked so hard that I know I can't maintain that same work level in 2001, so I've got to quit something.

The miracle of light pours over the green and brown expanse of saw grass and of water, shining and slowly moving, the grass and water that is the meaning and the central fact of the Everglades. It is a river of grass.

The key to accepting responsibility for your life is to accept the fact that your choices, every one of them, are leading you inexorably to either success or failure, however you define those terms.
