Scott Adsit Quotations

I never looked at my future as comedy. Even at Second City, I always thought of it as acting. I knew I was going to be an actor financially, emotionally, egotistically.

I put my foot in my mouth more than I speak properly.

I went to film school at Columbia and did that for a couple years, and really thought I was going to be a filmmaker, and then I kind of drifted over to the acting side after that.

I might've been witty, but I didn't have a shtick. So, I never considered myself a comedian.

Most sitcoms and cartoons, especially, you can rely on, because they go back to square one at the beginning of every episode.

New York has surprised me a couple of times. I was a snob about pizza, but I've found one or two places that allow me to forget deep dish for a while.

'Monty Python' and 'The Simpsons' have ruined comedy for writers for the rest of our lives.

Generally, I've found that a heckler in an improv audience is just enjoying the show so much that they want to be in it.

I'd been an actor in high school, and when I got to college, it was all about film.

I've heard New York actors say Chicago actors intimidate them because apparently we're the real nitty-gritty actors who're in a town where being onstage doesn't necessarily get you anything except your craft.
