Brad Garrett Quotations

It's all I have left in my life, caffeine and a poodle.

I think as any artist you always want to grow; you always want to get better.

I love strong women, not only in life but in craft.

I was very, very large as a kid and never athletic, and my home life was a little upside down and I never felt comfortable.

But I believe that there are marriages where you can have your pool table and she can have her scrapbooking room or garden or whatever it is. But when everyone has what they want, it's not funny. There's no conflict.

We don't take care of our teachers and our cops and our firemen. They should be at the top of our list.

I come from the world of improv; I love any show or any vehicle that gives me an opportunity to be in the moment.

There's a black man inside of me just trying to make bail.

Broadway was without doubt the hardest I ever worked in my life and the highest highs I've ever had as an actor. The unadulterated fear was on a level that was hard to explain.

I think we love watching people that are flawed because we're all flawed.

I would probably be a teacher if I weren't a comedian.

Actually, I have my own charity that I started that helps supplement families with terminal children.

I believe it's a real tedious hostage negotiation to have a marriage be what it is.

I'm the type of guy that feels pressure when I have to order dinner. I'm just that type of guy but that's my fuel. I work well with pressure.

It's fun to play people who are flawed.

I feel very, very grateful. I'm a lucky guy, you need a lot of luck, and then when the cameras roll, you have to have this group of writers, directors, and actors that just gel, and it seems to literally be happening more and more.

I think I'm better wired for television. I love variety as far as a project. I'm easily bored and the schedule of a television show, it just keeps you going.

It's like whether you're in a huge movie or you've just recorded an incredible album you've got to do the next thing, and that's part of being an artist.

Anyone can cook but only the fearless can be great.

My whole life, I've been telling jokes.

Without having some kind of parameters placed on a coach, the reality is they could all have a different vision of what a kid's limit is in the heat, ... The policy itself that was adopted by the OSAA executive board gives the coaches some parameters as to how to structure their practices and guidelines to follow.

We really had some high expectations for her. She's still a good player, she just hasn't been able to show it much.

We're looking forward to it because we haven't really hung since the show wrapped.

She was in some pain. But she wanted to go back out there.

She's slowly getting back into it. She played a little against Villa Grove and a little against St. Teresa. It's just not fully healed so when she comes down on it wrong, it sets her back.

I'd like to dedicate this to Britney (Spears) and our baby. ... Everybody Loves Raymond.

I'd like to dedicate this to Britney (Spears) and our baby.

But when that number reaches or exceeds 95, there is some caution that needs to take place,

I was done. I had to come back.

You know what's spooky about this location is that if you look down the hill, you can see a house, a road with traffic. And if you were here and you were injured in such a way that you couldn't move, you're actually watching people go by and you can't call out to them to come help you because they're too far away.

We get into this huge tussle with him. He's screaming at the top of his lungs and we end up gagging him at some point,

We're particularly concerned where kids are exposed to high temperatures and high humidity with nowhere to cool down, ... Everyone would agree that one kid dying of a heat-related illness is something no one wants, especially when it is a totally preventable situation if proper steps are taken.

What a road it's been. I have to thank an amazing ensemble.

There's been some major movement over the last few days, and it's looking promising. We're all very close.

The attack began right on this trail. The reason I believe that is because of items we found a short distance off the trail would suggest to me and other investigators that she was attacked on the trail. She then tumbled down the hill.

They wanted someone like a Danny DeVito character a guy who was kind of a pit bull. That wasn't me, but they graciously agreed to let me audition anyway.

I guess after the initial tussle in the (hotel) room we seemed to get along fine. He is a mild mannered guy, except in this one area, obviously he has some issues of concern,

I have to dedicate this to Britney (Spears) and our baby,

He's shown remorse for the victims, the surviving victims, and the pain and suffering. He actually has told them in writing and on the telephone that he's very sorry for what happened to their loved ones, ... But he's not sorry about what he did. I mean, he believes in and I think he's comfortable with that.

He said he believed that it was wrong that the United States -- particularly the CIA -- was going into Muslim countries and, in his words, manipulating the governance there to the U.S. best interest. And he says it's wrong and he wanted to make a statement,
