Humor has bailed me out of more tight situations than I can think of. If you go with your instincts and keep your humor, creativity follows. With luck, success comes, too.

I think I've learned that if you want to be successful, you have to tell your story honestly and from your heart - and I think a healthy sense of humor doesn't hurt either.
If you don't have humor, you're not going to make it. You're going to be one of those people who walks around with your head about to explode.
Anyone in the humor business isn't thinking clearly if he doesn't surround himself with idea people. Otherwise, you settle for mediocrity - or you burn yourself out.
People always ask me how I manage to find humor in so much bleakness. I think this is almost a necessary skill to have.
Humor's always been the problem of my work, hasn't it? When working, I feel satisfied when I surprise myself. And when I surprise myself, I wind up laughing.
Humor is laughing at what you haven't got when you ought to have it.
Throw in the humor, throw in that personality, try things you wouldn't normally try.
Celebrate your successes. Find some humor in your failures.
Success is always less funny than failure.
All you have in comedy, in general, is just going with your instincts. You can only hope that other people think that what you think is funny is funny. I don't have an answer but I just try to plough straight ahead.
