I kinda like this Jay-Z thing, where he’s retired, but he keeps doing shows. I think I beat him to that. If you say you’re retired, people don’t bother you so much, and then if you want to do something, you can do it.

Bill Murray

I’m over the Oscar thing. I feel that if you really want an Oscar, you’re in trouble. It’s like wanting to be married – you’ll take anybody. If you want the Oscar really badly, it becomes a naked desire and ambition. It becomes very unattractive. I’ve seen it.
BILL MURRAY

Acting Ambition Desire
He’s going on and on and on, and finally he stops. It’s just total horror, and the camera’s still rolling. You can hear it, sort of a grinding noise. And the director says, “Anything else, Bud?”

Anything Bud Else Grinding
I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn’t I get that day over and over and over?

Day Girl Good Sunset
Like: ‘Don’t walk out there with one hand in your pocket unless there’s somethin’ in there you’re going to bring out.’ You gotta commit. You’ve gotta go out there and improvise and you’ve gotta be completely unafraid to die.
BILL MURRAY

Able Die Hands Pockets
You’re supposed to have one hand up and one hand down. As you’re trying to going up, you’re trying to pull someone up at the same time.

Hands Suppose Trying
Different vodkas have different effects. Some make you feel a little… poly-lingual. Some make you feel like you want to talk back to someone who’s giving you a hard time. Some make you feel like lifting kettle bells.

Giving Hard Times Want
All parties are good.

Good Party
Every moment that you share someone else’s pain, feel what they feel, makes you more human.

Moments Pain Share
We still have to put some cherry syrup on it, and then we can eat it

My favorite thing about New York is the people, because I think they’re misunderstood. I don’t think people realize how kind New York people are.
BILL MURRAY

Country People Thinking
In Japan, you have no idea what they are saying, and they can’t help you either. Nothing makes any sense. They’re very polite, but you feel like a joke is being played on you the entire time you’re there.

Country Helping Ideas
The only way we’ll ever know what it’s like to be you is if you work your best at being you as often as you can, and keep reminding yourself: That’s where home is.
BILL MURRAY

Home Reminding Way Yourself
I don’t feel like it’s pressure. It’s more of an obligation – not to entertain or be funny, but to have a certain levity. I mean, there’s got to be a lightness in your leg.
BILL MURRAY

Light Mean Trying
It just doesn’t matter if we win or we lose. IT JUST DOESN’T MATTER! It just doesn’t matter! It just doesn’t matter!
BILL MURRAY

Just Lose Matter
The set is stocked with Victorian extras and little children in Oliver kind of outfits, and the director says, “All right, Bud – just give it whatever you want.” And Hackett goes off on a rant. Unbelievably obscene.
BILL MURRAY

Oliver Right Stocked Unbelievable
I’m just a potato that won’t quit. I’m a potato with some legs. Some have eyes, I’ve got legs.
