Everybody knows how to raise children, except the people who have them.

3 December 2020 Steve Coogan

If you are a great dramatic actor then you often don’t know if people are enjoying your stuff at all because they are sitting there in silence. But with comedy it’s a simple premise. If it’s funny, people laugh. If it’s not, they don’t.

3 December 2020 Doug Coupland

Cleanliness becomes more important when godliness is unlikely.

3 December 2020 Parker Posey

I can do comedy, so people want me to do that, but the other side of comedy is depression. Deep, deep depression is the flip side of comedy. Casting agents don’t realize it but in order to be funny you have to have that other side.

3 December 2020 Paul Feig

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.

3 December 2020 Calvin Trillin

I actually think of being funny as an odd turn of mind, like a mild disability, some weird way of looking at the world that you can’t get rid of.

3 December 2020 Steven Wright

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

A good artist is willing to die many times over. What’s funny is, I’ve died so many times.

3 December 2020 Flip Wilson

Funny is an attitude.

3 December 2020 Jenny Eclair

I can’t watch other people doing comedy. As soon as somebody starts being funny I have to turn off because it upsets me. I get comedy indigestion. I just hate anybody else being funny. That’s my job.

3 December 2020 Wallace Shawn

For some reason, people find me funny. It’s quite hard to define why a thought is funny. It’s even harder to define why a person would be funny. It’s a word that I can’t define at all. But whether I know quite what it is or not, I seem to be it.

3 December 2020 Courteney Cox

It’s funny, because I never think of myself as Little Miss All-Together.

It’s funny, I can sit through the worst horror film ever made but even a quite good romantic comedy can drive me nuts.

3 December 2020 Marc Jacobs

3 December 2020 Eddie Van Halen

It’s funny, when bands or younger musicians ask me: ‘So, what does it take to make it?’ Well, first explain to me what you mean by ‘making it’: Do you want to be a rock star or do you want music to be your livelihood?

3 December 2020 Elisabeth Shue

I really love ‘Soapdish.’ I wish ‘Soapdish’ had more of a moment because I felt that that is a really strong, funny movie. Kevin Kline is hilarious in that movie.

3 December 2020 Rowan Atkinson

Funny things tend not to happen to me. I am not a natural comic. I need to think about things a lot before I can be even remotely amusing.

3 December 2020 Michel Gondry

At school I was very shy. I wasn’t funny really.

3 December 2020 Howard Stern

Yes, I believe blue material is funny, but if that’s all you’ve got, you’re dead in the water. It’s not good.

3 December 2020 Bill Maher

Everything that used to be a sin is now a disease.

3 December 2020 Lucille Ball

I’m not funny. What I am is brave.

3 December 2020 Patty Duke
