Growing up in the Midwest, people don’t drive Porsches and Ferraris. They drive Fords and Chevys. And so even if you have the opportunity to buy a more expensive car, it doesn’t occur to you because it’s not what you relate to. – Luke Perry
When I was a kid, I was at a bowling alley and I ran into a soda machine. I still have the scar on my right eyebrow obviously. – Luke Perry
I’ve had tons of odd jobs, but I think that I would probably be a fireman because you get to see the results of your job. You get there and there is a house on fire. You leave and there’s not a fire anymore. – Luke Perry
I have a girlfriend, but I don’t really want to talk about her. I won’t name her. She isn’t in show business, has nothing to do with it. So I’d rather just keep her out of it. – Luke Perry
Why doesn’t Apple stop for a year and make medical devices? When people talk about technology, that’s where I start to get a little hot under the collar because I know that it’s the key to solving some of the world’s biggest problems.

I think that sometimes kids use the show as a jumping off point for talking about things with their parents. – Luke Perry
I’m not much of a matchmaker. I think people have to make their own choices and mistakes and all that stuff. – Luke Perry
It was a fun film. I had a great time doing it. I was looking for a role just like that for my first movie role. I didn’t want to have a starring role, because I wanted a chance to learn. I didn’t want the whole thing riding on me. – Luke Perry
There’s a big difference between me and a real, legitimate working hand, or a world-champion rodeo cowboy. I play ’em, and I aspire to be like that, but those guys are tough. – Luke Perry
When I was a kid, I just devoured TV 24 hours a day. Now that it’s actually available 24 hours a day, I’m usually busy doing other stuff. But I do watch TV when I can. – Luke Perry
