I definitely had fun being a waiter. I can't say for sure that I was a good waiter. I think that I made people have a good time.

John Krasinski

When I was a waiter I was fired twice from the same restaurant. I guess I was that good of an actor but that bad of a waiter.

Nathan Fillion

If you're a waiter, the worst thing you can do is go to work resenting your job. This will sound trite - but it's the reality, and part of my personality - yet when I was a waiter, I tried to be the best waiter, and when I was a bingo-caller I tried to be the best bingo-caller.

Russell Crowe

When you find a waiter who is a waiter and not an actor, writer, musician or poet, you've found a jewel.

Andre Soltner

When I was a waiter, I wanted to be the best waiter I could be and worked to be better at it every day.

Robert Herjavec

I must be cheaper now than I was ten years ago in order to get a laugh. It's not funny now if I leave the table and give the waiter a nickel tip, which was a laugh years ago. Today I must maneuver it so that somehow I get the waiter to give me a nickel tip.

Jack Benny

As everyone knows, tips constitute the bulk of a waiter's or waitress's income. But they are also optional, at least in theory. Does it really seem like a good idea to make someone's salary so susceptible to customers' whims on a given day - or whether any customers happen to show up at all?

Stephen J. Dubner

I was a pretty damn good waiter.

Antoni Porowski

A good setter is like a waiter.

Julio Velasco

I worked as a waiter when I was 15 and got a chance to appreciate good, simple food. There's nothing better than a boiled egg with toast.

Ewan McGregor

My theory is that I'm just closer to the sun than everyone else. I weigh more than everyone else, I'm taller than everyone else. When it's really humid and hot outside it's going to take a bigger toll on me.

John Isner

It is a good thing that life is not as serious as it seems to a waiter.

Don Herold

Well, capitalism is going to grow and grow. The nature of it is that the guy who has the most poker chips on the table has more leverage than everyone else. He can eventually outbluff everyone else and outraise everyone else at the table. That's what has happened and it needs to be corrected.

Simon Baker

Everyone has kind of done something that is bad and everyone has shades of good, but everyone has that darkness. There's always that little twinkle of darkness in everyone's eye.

Emma Roberts

I've always carried the burdens of everyone I love and try to make sure everyone else is good rather than focus on myself.

Robert Covington

Nothing makes everyone feel more like the meeting was worth it, than ending by saying it would be good to follow up when everyone's in the same place.
