Movies are boring. It’s like watching paint dry. I did a little role in a movie, and it was eight lines. I was there for three days. It’s just horrible. Television is 15 hour days. Movies are 18 hour days. And it’s 18 hours of doing not a thing. Ron White

I was considered by my peers to be a good comedian. So that’s all I ever strived to do was get some recognition from my peers. Ron White

I was a little one-trick pony. I do what I’ve always done. That’s really where my best stuff comes from. I don’t know how it happens. It just happens. Ron White
I’m definitely guilty of thinking something is funny but thinking the audience won’t. Then three years later I will finally try it and it’ll kill them. I got to give them more credit. Ron White

When I was a kid, mostly I played in a ditch that didn’t have much water in it. It was for drainage purposes. There was not a lot trouble to get into in that ditch. It was ditch activities like catching crawdads and minnows. Ron White
There have been times when I played more than others, but I’ve been a road comic for a quarter of a century, so I’ve always played golf on the road because you have a lot of time to kill. Ron White

My favorite bands are the Allman Brothers and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Ron White
There’s no such thing as a hit joke. Ron White

I don’t do any corporate work. Ron White
I was a comedy fan when I was a little kid. Ron White

I didn’t get where I am today by worryin’ about how I’d feel tomorrow. Ron White
The only thing I really worry about is my live stand-up show because I have to answer to the fans. Ron White

I go through about 140 cities a year. Ron White

I’d rather do a really good small part than a really bad big part. Ron White
My uncle was a preacher, and I used to go watch him preach. He was also funny, so I’m very ‘preacher-ish’ on stage, not by intent but because that’s where I learned to talk in front of people. Ron White
