Privacy is big for me. To do interviews even, I have a very love/hate with it.
When a role seems fun it's easy to play. It kind of comes organically.
I'm Greek. My body produces feta cheese.
I'm not versed enough in constitutional law to run for office. I'd have to go back to school or something.
There was a long time where I was an 'artist' in quotes, who had no money. But I guess back then I also never had a girlfriend.
I've been happily dedicated to the same woman for a number of years. I never even look at other women.
It's not good for comedy to be like, 'Thanks for liking me.' Being popular is poison.
My dad doesn't get any of my jokes. He laughs at them, but he doesn't understand them. He's just laughing because people around him are laughing.
Reciting lines is hard; making stuff up is much, much easier.
My real last name is Galifianakisburg.
I haven't been hit since Leon Spinks hit me in '92.
I don't like cursing in movies. I feel like cursing has become the new hackiness. You try to find substitutions for cursing.
I would have changed my last name if being famous were my goal.
Tigers love pepper...they hate cinnamon.
