Frank Welker's quotes

• I've been doing voices as long as I can remember. When I was little, I could pick up on sounds and then I discovered you could distort what you hear and make people laugh or disrupt a class.
• I was voted by my high-school senior class as most likely to recede.
• I like looking at the characters. Seeing them always brings up some voice or attitude. I am much more visual, and that works so much better than having someone tell me what the character is all about.
• I have worked alone and with a cast and enjoy the process both ways. There is more back-and-forth with a full cast, and you can feed off the other actors' performance.
• Normally, I play dads, good guys and little animals.
• I have this peculiar ability to be able to anticipate mouth movements on screen and fill them with words or sound.
• One thing that seems to surprise the studios is finding out later my willingness to audition. Under the right circumstances, I actually enjoy it very much.
• [on Transformers] I think for me, Megatron, for obvious reasons, is my favorite, followed closely by Soundwave.
• [on Scooby-Doo] In our business to have a show that goes 50 years, let alone to be part of that in the entertainment business, is kind of unheard of. So I feel lucky.
• [About Fred Jones in the Scooby-Doo series] Fred was the only one who had a license, so I drove the Mystery Machine, right? As long as nobody took the van away from me, that gave me four-wheel power.
• Joseph Barbera said that Fred Jones (in Scooby-Doo) was the all-American hero type and that I should just do my own voice. I was like, 'I never saw myself as the hero type, but OK!'"
