In The Truman Show, Jim Carrey plays an insurance salesman who goes about living his life until one day he finds out everything he thought was real is one big reality TV show. The movie allows you to ponder how you’d live differently if you knew every action you took was publicly documented (and in 2020, we’re living in some form of this reality). Here’s a collection of some of the best quotes from the film.

Good morning, and in case I don’t see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight!

Truman Burbank

The early bird gathers no moss! The rolling stone catches the worm!

Truman Burbank

It feels like the whole world revolves around me somehow.

Truman Burbank
the-truman-show-quotes 3

It was dad. I swear! Dressed like a homeless man. And you know what else was strange? A business man and a woman with a little dog came out of nowhere and forced him onto a bus.

Truman Burbank

Somebody help me, I’m being spontaneous!

Truman Burbank
the-truman-show-quotes 4

I hereby proclaim this planet Trumania of the Burbank Galaxy.

Truman Burbank

I’ll cross my fingers for ya.

Truman Burbank

Truman Show Quotes from Christof

Cue the sun!

Christof

Where you going, Truman?

Christof

We’ve become bored with watching actors give us phony emotions. We are tired of pyrotechnics and special effects. While the world he inhabits is, in some respects, counterfeit, there’s nothing fake about Truman himself. No scripts, no cue cards. It isn’t always Shakespeare, but it’s genuine. It’s a life.

Christof

We accept the reality of the world with which we’re presented. It’s as simple as that.

Christof
the-truman-show-quotes 6

You were real. That’s what made you so good to watch. There is no more truth out there than there is in the world I created for you. The same lies, the same deceit. But in my world, you have nothing to fear.

Christof

Everything on the show is for sale. The actor’s wardrobe, food products, to the very homes they live in.

Christof

I have given the chance for Truman to lead a normal life. The world, the place you live in, is the sick place. Seahaven is the way the world should be.

Christof

Talk to me. Say something. Well, say something, goddamn it. You’re on television. You’re live to the whole world.

Christof

Truman Show Quotes from Meryl

How can anyone expect me to carry on under these conditions? It’s unprofessional!

Meryl

For me there is no difference between private life and public life. My life is ‘The Truman Show’. The Truman Show is a lifestyle, a noble lifestyle. It is a truly blessed life.

Meryl
the-truman-show-quotes 7

Why don’t you let me fix you some of this Mococoa drink? All natural cocoa beans from the upper slopes of Mount Nicaragua. No artificial sweeteners.

Meryl

Hi, honey! Look what I got free at the checkout. It’s a “Chef’s Pal”. It’s a dicer, grater, peeler, all in one. Never needs sharpening, dishwasher safe!

Meryl

Truman Show Quotes from Marlon

It’s a lot of world for one man, Truman. Are you sure that’s not wishful thinking? You wishing you’d made something more of yourself.

Marlon

Look at that sunset, Truman. It’s perfect…that’s the Big Guy. Quite a paintbrush he’s got.

Marlon

It’s all true. It’s all real. Nothing here is fake. Nothing you see on this show is fake. It’s merely controlled.

Marlon

Other Truman Show Quotes

You never see anything anyway. They always turn the camera and play music and you know, the wind blows in and the curtain moves and you don’t see anything.

Security Guard

We can’t let him die in front of a live audience!

Network Executive

One point seven billion were there for his birth. 220 countries tuned in for his first step. The world stood still for that stolen kiss. And as he grew, so did technology. An entire human life, recorded on an intricate network of hidden cameras and broadcasted live and uninterrupted 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to an audience around the globe.

TV Host

Before we begin, I’d like to thank you on behalf of our audience for granting this exclusive interview. We know how demanding your schedule is and we all know how jealously you guard your privacy.

TruTalk Newscaster

Hi Christof, I’d just like to say one thing. You’re a liar and a manipulator and what you’ve done to Truman is sick!

Sylvia

He’s not a performer, he’s a prisoner. Look at him, look at what you’ve done to him!

Sylvia

On the air, unaware!

The World is a Stage!

    I’ve been in-love with this movie ever since it went out. I’ll throw in a few cent, Jim Carrey should play another role like this I guess. He is very good at it and the movie industry should give him another shot instead playing a support role or a villain. I mean I saw him once being a freak-o in the The Cable Guy so why Dr. Robotnik? But, hands-down to this man. He never stop doing what he wanted to do as actor.

      100%! Eternal Sunshine also a great role for him.
