Steve Carell Quotes

Being an actress wasn't a plan at all, so what's happened to me is very strange. Life isn't very normal, even though I'm still very much a normal girl. I ride the subway, I ride the bus, and all of that.

I think I would find being in Hollywood intense if I had more of a social life, but all I do is stay indoors with my sister and play with our puppy, watch movies.

I'm not a movie star. I'm just an actress.

I don't like celebrities; I don't hang out with them; I don't relate to that life.

I never thought about the actors on television or film, like what kind of life they had.

I have no real want or need to be a movie star.

We weren't a Hollywood family. We were simply a show business family.

Stardom isn't a profession, it's an accident.

Hollywood is like being nowhere and talking to nobody about nothing.

A lot of people assume that once you're working in Hollywood you become some sort of glamour-diva, which could not be further from the truth about me.

People think being famous is so glamorous, but half the time you're in a strange hotel room living out of a suitcase.

I haven't had a lot of celebrities around me growing up.

I work with a lot of movie stars.

I never wanted to be a star, and I don't really want to be famous. I just love the stability of my life. I'm a complete family guy.

It's strange for my friends when they see me on TV and in magazines, because the person that they see doing interviews and pictures on the red carpet is not the person that they know.

People just assume that if you're famous, you're in Hollywood.

Walking down the red carpet, suddenly I felt very special and different. All the flashlights from cameras and requesting voices from the media, the scene, it was just like what I remembered seeing on TV or a movie when I was a little girl - the scene only when movie stars appeared.

I have always been a Malibu Man, like all actors.

The red carpet is kind of a surreal experience. There's nothing normal about it, so for me the most important thing is to maintain some normality right until the point you get out of the car.

I've never been interested in celebrity.

It's been crazy. My life has totally changed. One week I was in school, hanging out with my friends and the next, I'm going to the L.A. premiere of one of the year's biggest movies. It's been a crazy experience.

The fact is, I never wanted to be a movie star.

As young, hot actors living in Hollywood, you get even more attractive.

I don't necessarily need Hollywood.

Hollywood is not suited for me, and I am not suited for it.
