I don't really dissect comedy. Nothing kills off humor more than overanalyzing it.
From David Steinberg
When I talk to Steve Martin, he's joyful when he talks about comedy.
On 'Curb Your Enthusiasm,' it takes almost a year to get 10 shows written. It always reminds me of my old yeshiva days, where you used to sit over a piece of Talmud and analyze everything that was going on.
I don't believe any particular ethnic group is smarter than any other group.
The odd thing about comedy is that the more personal you are, the larger the audience.
In comedy, looking back is more important than looking around at your contemporaries because they are too much influenced by the same time period as you are.
