I was not a big fan of the Attitude Era. Some of the things they did were very good and very funny but I was never a fan of the sleazy stuff.

'Smart Funny & Black' came about because I felt that black comedians were being considered as only capable of a certain type of comedy - sort of physical, kind of silly - and I felt like we are not a...

I always tell people that to be the funny person in a Steve Martin movie is like getting a call that Keith Moon wants you to play drums on his record. He should be playing drums on his record.

I really love 'Real Housewives.' It's like the, you know, comedy stuff that's, like, intentionally funny. Like, I love 'Nathan for You,' that Comedy Central show. It's just brilliant. My friend Bill...

I'm the one who's dating the craft-service guy instead of the producer. Plus, if a producer is going to date a hot young thing, I'm probably not the first person on their list - the weird, quirky,...

There is something about sex that always brings out the funny in me. I think it's because we make such fools of ourselves over it.

George Clooney is exactly what you would expect. He's annoyingly good looking, insanely funny, and super smart. So you just feel really inferior around him all the time. You end up feeling really bad...

To play the leading man in a 'Three Stooges' movie, you've got to think funny. Thank God I think funny.

The funny thing about commercials to me is that many of them now don't even mention the product until the very end. You don't really know what the commercial is all about. They're kind of like little...

I was reading some books by Michel Houellebecq, and the first thing that comes to mind is that they're really funny, all the ways they describe the most depressing things.

The friends in my real life do tend to be smart and funny and creative. I am lucky!

Tiger is a funny guy. I want to beat him as badly as anybody else but I respect him. He has been very cordial, very nice to me - a gentleman.

'The Santa Claus' with Tim Allen, I watch it in July. I think he's so funny.

I got a lot of support from my parents. That's the one thing I always appreciated. They didn't tell me I was being stupid; they told me I was being funny.

I have an inability to enjoy things, but that's why we're in comedy. If we were happy, we wouldn't be funny, I guess.

It is one thing to go on stage and be funny or be in a good place in your career, but for a woman, actually facing the elements in a physical way is a very powerful thing.

I'm doin' something different. I mean, I talk a little bit about race and interracial dating, but it's not the heart of my act. I just try to do what I think is funny; there's no huge message or...

It's so funny, because when I was growing up in a small town in New Hampshire, I was obsessed with Leonardo DiCaprio - from the 'Growing Pains'/'What's Eating Gilbert Grape' era, because he was...

I'm good at coming up with wacky characters and funny dialogue.

I don't mean to sound - I don't want it to come out funny, but I don't like show business. I love - I love acting in films. I love it.

What's David's role? David looks good, that's what David does. David looks good, and I'm the funny one, that's what I hear constantly. But I keep telling him that looks fade.

I have kind of a funny relationship with movies. I don't have to see the whole movie to get an impression of it or to let it have an influence on me.

You can't really be strong until you see a funny side to things.

I would say just start writing. You've got to write every day. Copy someone that you like if you think that perhaps could become your sound, too. I did that with Hemingway, and I thought I was writing...

Cure for an obsession: get another one.

Be thankful we're not getting all the government we're paying for.

Don't confuse efforts with results...

Have you ever heard someone say 'I shouldn't have trusted my intuition'?

Then she called Gansey. It rang twice, three times, and then: Hello? He sounded boyish and ordinary. Blue asked, Did I wake you up? She heard Gansey fumble for and scrape up his wireframes. No, he...

Words were his delight; Hers, a gay gracefulness Of dancing and moving. But when to the place Of deep loving {Starlight at midnight} At last they came, Their full communion And consummation, Their...
