I enjoy the work I do in comedies. It's a valid test of your creative abilities.

Reality is the scary thing. Not my work, not comedy.

The last thing I want to do is use my comedy as a partisan tool or as a method for preaching.

A lot of people don't think of my work as being all that funny, but I think it's hilarious!

I'm not opposed to putting myself in danger for meaningless comedy.

I made my living in comedy, but I'm not a silly person. I've got all these sides to me. Even in my movies that I've written myself, the characters sometimes border on great anger or nutsiness or other kinds of behavior. I'm not just doing fart jokes for two hours.

I've actually done a lot of comedy.

I think I enlist comedy to a serious purpose.

I can't pretend that I'm a great student of the art of comedy because anybody that becomes philosophical about humour doesn't know what he's talking about.

First and foremost, I just want to write comedy.
