We all have our favorite roles that Jack Nicholson has played.  Today, he’s playing the role of Birthday boy turning 80-years-old.

Here are some of our favorite Jack quotes, according to IMDB.

[regarding “Terms of Endearment”] When I read the part, I knew I’d win the Oscar for it.

(2011, on his own mortality) One of the toughest parts of aging is losing your friends. At first it starts quietly, then pretty soon it’s every month, and you can’t help but think, “When is that bell going to go off for me?” And on top of that, you feel this constant loss. At this time of life, you feel just a sword’s point from death. It’s frightening – who wants to face God and the clear white light? I know I definitely don’t. Yet.

I’m not worried about wrinkles, in myself or in women. I find them interesting. I can’t see so well, so sometimes I look in the mirror, and I see how I was as a young man.

Take a look at the great memes and Tweets about the master actor himself:

Happy Birthday Jack Nicholson!
