3 December 2020 Martha Plimpton It’s not common for a woman on television, especially if she’s the mom of the family, to be funny. She’s usually a straight man or foil.
3 December 2020 George Saunders The word ‘funny’ is a bit like the word ‘love’ – we don’t have enough words to describe the many varieties.
3 December 2020 Joey Lauren Adams The last person they expected to connect with a screenplay was the comedic, blonde actress with the funny voice.
3 December 2020 Jean Baudrillard There is nothing funny about Halloween. This sarcastic festival reflects, rather, an infernal demand for revenge by children on the adult world.
3 December 2020 Colin Quinn You know, the funny thing about Lorne and that show is that, you can go over one million things, but in a business of bean counters, he still likes to laugh at small things and creates a show around it.
3 December 2020 Donald Trump You know the funny thing, I don’t get along with rich people. I get along with the middle class and the poor people better than I get along with the rich people.
3 December 2020 Joan Rivers Comediennes are the lucky ones, because if you’re funny, you can be 125 years old and they will still accept you.
3 December 2020 Rush Limbaugh You know how old I am? I’m so old, I remember when Letterman used to be funny and it was presidents who were serious. That’s how old I am.
3 December 2020 Celia Johnson Don’t remember me as too nice or beautiful or funny, because then you’ll be disappointed.
3 December 2020 Michael Mandelbaum In my experience, it’s not just that serious books get a hearing on comedy shows. But serious books get a serious hearing, as well as a funny one, on comedy shows.
3 December 2020 Laurence J. Peter Television has changed the American child from an irresistable force to an immovable object.
3 December 2020 Hank Azaria Being funny with a funny voice is more my comfort zone, a broader character that I try to humanize, a kind of silly or wacky persona that I try to fill in.
3 December 2020 Anthony Anderson It’s sort of an action flick. You can’t be that funny trying to steal diamonds.
3 December 2020 Buddy Hackett As a child my family’s menu consisted of two choices: take it or leave it.
3 December 2020 Trey Parker It’s funny because I think a lot of it is simply… We’ve never considered ourselves satirists, but because we’re on Comedy Central and because we’re South Park on Comedy Central, we can do any topic we want.
3 December 2020 Joseph Gordon-Levitt As soon as you are trying to be funny or dramatic, that’s when things start feeling fake and boring.
3 December 2020 Jennifer Ellison I know people will think it’s funny because I’ve done glamour modelling in the past, but I felt embarrassed about my body and just wanted to cover it up.
3 December 2020 Jack Dee Mmmm… the comedy that matters is the comedy you pull out of thin air. It’s a bit like when something funny has happened and you try to explain it to someone else and end up saying, ‘You had to be there.’
3 December 2020 Bob Newhart I really don’t know what makes a comedian. I think it’s a family background and environment. Yet if you put the same ingredients in another person, he may never utter a funny line.
3 December 2020 Marlon Wayans If you could cross a lion and a monkey, that’s what I’d be, because monkeys are funny and lions are strong.
3 December 2020 John Badham I would do it today because the thing that appealed to me was not necessarily the mechanics of the robot, but it was his personality and how funny and charming he was.
3 December 2020 Ricky Schroder I feel cheesy when I see ‘Silver Spoons.’ Some of it was funny, but some of it was just cheese! My kids love it, but I look at it and cringe.
