If you get too well-known, you can never be a comedian's comedian, it just won't sit well. But I'm fine with that. I'm fine with that label.

Eddie Izzard

I didn't want to be a comedian. I wanted to be an actor - maybe a comic actor, but a real actor - by real, I mean not a comedian. I wanted to be an actor.

Gene Wilder

Harold Lloyd was not a comedian. But he was the finest actor to play a comedian that I ever saw.

Hal Roach

Giving yourself over to the fine line of a human-like droid means that sometimes you make choices that don't make you feel good, as an actor, and you have to learn to embrace that. No actor will tell you that that's a good place to be.

Michael Ealy

I'm best known as a stand-up comedian, but I'm a good actor in the right role.

Marcus Brigstocke

He was so good at everything he did. You can't call Ronnie Barker a comedian. He was an actor, and a great writer.

Bruce Forsyth

I'm an actor, I'm not a comedian, I never was a comedian.

Jonah Hill

I'm not a comedian. I'm what you call a good, old-fashioned working actor who has had delusions of grandeur for my entire career and has known what I want to do.

Chris Diamantopoulos

Whatever happens in life can happen on the stage, but as a comedian you should always be clear what your target is. It's fine to be gratuitously tasteless if that's what you are intending to do. It's that old line: I don't defend what a comedian might say but I defend to the death his right to say it.

Ben Miller

If I was a young man, I might have bypassed the whole comedian-actor thing and just been a filmmaker. Then I'd probably have spent my whole life going, 'I wonder if I could have been a comedian.'

Bobcat Goldthwait

If someone doesn't like a comedian that's fine; a lot of people probably don't like my standup, and that's fine. But I think that the problem is people want you to get in trouble. That's the issue.

Jim Norton

I always wanted to be a comedian and actor. I basically stumbled into the music medium, though. I'm OK, but that's about it. I like to think I'm good enough not to negatively affect the performance.

Bo Burnham

I always said I was good football player, I'm fine as an actor, but I'm a great dad.

Dean Cain

What's the good thing about being an actor, you can do more things. Not just being a comedian, not going overboard but expressing myself within the confines of a film.

Brandon T. Jackson

I see myself as a comedian rather than a female comedian. I happen to be a woman, but I am a comedian by trade.

Miranda Hart

One of the biggest misconceptions about me is that I'm a comedian, which I'm not. A comedian is someone who can stand up in front of an audience and make you laugh. I've never done stand-up and I never will. I'm a comic actor. My comedy comes through my characters.
