Jonah Hill quotes
- Germany's amongst my top three places in the world I'd like to live.
- I was going to the beach with my girlfriend's family. They're all really
big into soccer and her brother was this soccer superstar. And I'm
hanging out at the beach with all these jocks and then there's me. I
know nothing about sports. I don't even know what a sport is. I have to
confess that I'm a little afraid of birds. I am...whatever. So we're
sitting on the beach and this bird flies toward me and all I could say
was 'Pleaaaase!' Like 'Please don't hurt me,' 'Please don't fly in my
direction?' I don't know. And everyone cracked up and was doing
impressions of it the whole rest of the day.
- It's harder to be funny if you're handsome than if you're very
normal-looking. It's just more relatable. You're the underdog. I mean
it's funny to see people struggle, and you don't buy that
Brad Pitt is struggling, you know that guy could be the most
skill-less guy in the world, but if you look like that you will be fine
for the rest of your life.
- On Henry Winkler and their family at Zoe Winkler's wedding: I spent 48
percent of my youth here..They were like parents to all of our friends.
We got parents and then we got the Winklers. I feel like my sister's
getting married.
