L.A. is so fake - girls there are so superficial.

I was a typical boy growing up, even though I wasn't particularly outgoing or chatty. I loved running around and playing football. My siblings and I are only a year apart in age, so we played together. Sometimes it was good being so close, sometimes it wasn't - like when they'd steal my candy and toys.

I told my family, 'If I get out of line, just kick my butt.' The last thing that I want is to change.

Verne Troyer 69 quotes

All my family is average-size...

All my family is average-sized, apart from me. I didn't really think about my size until I got older, a few years before high school. It had never really fazed me that much.

I stay away from the elf role...

I stay away from the elf roles; I stay away from playing a leprechaun. All the roles I try to do are something that an average actor would do.

I grew up in Michigan, in a very small town, Centreville. In my graduating class, I had like 92 people.

There's nobody else that can double me - except for a doll.

People categorise people as being disabled, and it's basically whatever you put your mind to, you can do, and everybody that has limitations, they can still do anything they want as long as they set their mind to it.

Working with Christopher Plummer, I mean, he's a legend. I was so, so nervous even meeting him, but he made me feel comfortable, and that helped me tremendously.

I love London. I would move here. I like British people; everybody is so down to earth.

I used to be Amish. I had to stay a lot with my grandparents or aunts and uncles who are Amish, so I was sort of partially Amish. When I go back there now I still get into that culture. I can drive a horse and buggy because they don't use cars. And, of course, there's no electricity. I respect them a lot. The Amish like to live a very plain lifestyle, the way they think God intended. It sort of brings you back to like Little House on the Prairie days or something.

There's a lot of little people who think they can't do certain things, but like I say, if you put your mind to it, you can do things that average people do, just in a different way.

Doing stunt work is risky, but it's something I enjoy.

We grew up Amish, but my parents left the religion when I was a child. The Amish have lots of rules, and my dad thought many people in the faith were hypocritical because they'd tell others not to do something and then do it themselves.

I still pinch myself that I ended up in Hollywood. And I am still surprised at the fans.

I've done approximately 15 films, and most of the things I've done have either been stunt or costume work.

I was working at a candy-wrapping factory before I became an actor. I admit I snuck some hard candy, which is great because you can suck on it while you're working.

We were doing the dance routine and I dislocated my knee. I've been doing stunts for a long time and it's kind of weird that I'd dislocate my knee just dancing.

What I really enjoy the most is seeing what the crowd likes. I enjoy making people laugh.

My parents taught me to be optimistic and independent. They made me feel that I could do anything I set my mind to, which has really helped me. They didn't make allowances for me because of my height. I had to do everything my brother and sister had to do, including raising our animal menagerie that included cows and chickens.
