"About those, um, teeth? [in "Austin Powers"] The British are dentally challenged. In Britain in the 60s, you could be a sex symbol and still have bad teeth. Even today, you see English rock stars who are jillionaires and still have bad teeth." - Myers in USA Today, May 1, 1997
"Austin Powers was born out of trying to celebrate my father's life. You can only write stuff that is in your heart. I don't think there's a formula, and I know that it's foolish to look for one. My father's favorites were mine: Peter Sellers, Monty Python, Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, all of that stuff. My dad was a guy who loved to be silly, and he had a highly prized sense of humor. When I would bring friends home to play table hockey in the basement, if my dad didn't think they were funny, he wouldn't let them in the house. 'They can't come around,' he'd say. 'They're not bloody funny!'" - Myers quoted in Biography Magazine, June 1999
"He can write, and he thinks everything through in detail. In 'Wayne's World' and 'Wayne's World 2,' he cared about every aspect of production, whether it was writing, performance, editing or music. There's a real intensity always to do the best he can." - producer Lorne Michaels, quoted in Biography Magazine, June 1999
"I still believe that at any time the no talent police will come and arrest me." - Myers to Details Magazine, March 1992
