Jesse Tyler Ferguson Quotes

I get great joy from creating the perfect Norman Rockwell holiday. This is why I think I might be Martha Stewart’s brother from another mother Picture Quote #1

Having red hair is never good when you’re a kid. I was picked on a lot and didn’t have a lot of friends. But I think that gave me a thick skin and helped make me a better person Picture Quote #1

As an actor, you just want to work, and then you just want to be on a show or have a job that you love, and you hope that job will last - those things have happened. To have that platform to then talk about something that is very personal to me like marriage equality, it feels like a gift. I try and really respect that voice and not abuse it Picture Quote #1

The people I idolized I saw once a year on the Tony Awards. I would buy the cassette tapes of the various Broadway shows and scour the photos inside the recording package. That’s how I exposed myself to the arts - New York and professional theater felt like a very distant thing Picture Quote #1

Me being a shy kid, very closed off, showing vulnerability in a character was sort of a safe space on stage. It’s always been in my toolbox, there for me when I need it Picture Quote #1

My dad has always been very proud of me but I think I have exceeded his expectations. When I told him I wanted to be an actor and moved to New York City, I think he assumed I would be playing the guitar on the subway and collecting spare change in my guitar case. The fact that I’m not doing that means that I’m a huge success Picture Quote #1

I think if I produced a show I would not want to be part of that production. That’s not... I’m not... I mean, I couldn’t even sell Boy Scout chocolate bars when I was a kid! Picture Quote #1

I started taking my fiance, Justin, to some red carpet events I would go to, and a bowtie is often something that was required. We came across a lot of stylish bowties. We liked playing dress up for these events and we thought it would be fun to start a line, but it was never a reality until recently Picture Quote #1

I love TV now, and ‘Modern Family,’ but what draws me back to theater is that initial instinct of wanting to be a theater actor. I love the challenge of starting a play and not stopping until you finish. I love the immediacy of trusting your instincts Picture Quote #1

I have lots of Scottish blood and know that my family name is Scottish. At my home in the States I have a tartan crest but, unfortunately, I do a terrible Scottish accent Picture Quote #1

I don’t like improv at all. It terrifies me. I like to know exactly what I’m going to say. Being surprised does make me a better actor. Anytime I’m afraid of something that makes me rise to the occasion, it scares me, but it’s what makes great actors - being in the moment Picture Quote #1

Chemistry is one of these crazy things you can’t teach or learn or you can’t fake. You go in hoping it will work, hope that you will connect with the other actors. I was fortunate on ‘Modern Family’ and ‘The Procession.’ They are great people, very easy to like Picture Quote #1

At my first Golden Globes, I met people I was very much enamored by: Julianne Moore, Meryl Streep, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. It was surreal to see them in person Picture Quote #1

The definition of marriage cannot be disputed. It’s right there in black and white and it’s been the same since the start of Wikipedia Picture Quote #1

I did my New York debut at 21. It was ‘On the Town’ at the George Gershwin Theatre. New York is my artistic home Picture Quote #1

All my roots are Broadway. I got my Equity Card doing a Broadway show, and my first love is theater Picture Quote #1

Something I didn’t even know was on my bucket list has been achieved. I have cooked Thanksgiving dinner with Martha Stewart. I vow to follow the gospel of her teachings and do my very best in the remarkably less glamorous kitchen of my own home... without the luxury of magically appearing prep bowls filled by a staff of sous chefs Picture Quote #1

I could smell myself awake with that coffee Picture Quote #1

You left, and my heart is a ceaseless sermon of loneliness Picture Quote #1

I’m so in love, every time I look at you my soul gets dizzy Picture Quote #1

Me being a shy kid, very closed off, showing vulnerability in a character was sort of a safe space on stage. It’s always been in my toolbox, there for me when I need it Picture Quote #1

I wanted to be an actor because I wanted to be onstage. I wanted to do musical theater, and from that I realized I was interested in plays. I never imagined myself on television. I was so lucky to be onstage my whole life Picture Quote #1

I still feel like a novice when it comes to classical theater, but I don’t ever want to become comfortable with anything. The greatest creativity comes from being nervous and uncomfortable Picture Quote #1

I don’t have that kind of voice, the big baritone or rousing tenor sound. My wheelhouse was in the frothier pieces. So my appreciation for those older musicals and revivals grew Picture Quote #1

Growing up, I was a very shy kid but I felt that being on stage or playing another character would somehow open me up. And I think it did Picture Quote #1

This show does something very special for the gay community. There’s a message hidden inside the totally gaudy package that is so fun to watch. It’s all about loving and accepting yourself, and every season I’m surprisingly moved by it Picture Quote #1
