Quotes

• You can pour melted ice cream on regular ice cream. It's like a sauce!
• The only way physical comedy works is if you don't see it coming. And the harder the fall, the funnier it is. You have to really take some shots, and I've walked away with some bumps and bruises.
• I have some weird habits. For instance, I love beets. Show me a salad bar and I will clean them out of their beets.
• As long as I keep getting cast, I don't care if it's typecast.
• I've always been a little soft. I like to eat.
• You want to be with a girl who likes you for you. Just be yourself and forget all of the stuff you read in 'GQ' magazine.
• I was an athlete growing up. I was a wrestler, I played football, so I can take a fall. I actually wanted to be a stuntman when I was kid, so I would practice falling down the stairs. It's just something I like to do.
• A friend bought me a plane ticket to Hawaii, which is where I got discovered and became an actor, so I guess a friend bought me a winning lottery ticket.
