3 December 2020 Jennifer Weiner I don’t write literary fiction – I write books that are entertaining, but are also, I hope, well-constructed and thoughtful and funny and have things to say about men and women and families and children and life in America today.
3 December 2020 Chris Rock There are only three things women need in life: food, water, and compliments.
3 December 2020 Bill Sienkiewicz Kyle Baker’s work is really funny, but it’s also got a very clear vision.
3 December 2020 Mickey Rooney I’m the only man in the world with a marriage licence made out to whom it may concern.
3 December 2020 Joel Coen It’s a funny thing because you look at the careers of other filmmakers, and you see them sort of slow down, and you realize, maybe this becomes harder to do as you get older. That’s sort of a cautionary thing. I hope it doesn’t happen to me.
3 December 2020 Carl Hiaasen I’ve always enjoyed making people laugh. But in order for me to be funny, I have to get ticked off about something.
3 December 2020 Chuck Palahniuk It’s funny how you never think about the women you’ve had. It’s always the ones who get away that you can’t forget.
3 December 2020 Demetri Martin I wanna make a jigsaw puzzle that’s 40,000 pieces. And when you finish it, it says ‘go outside.’
3 December 2020 Kelly Osbourne It’s funny that all these goths paint their faces with such white make-up and that is the actual colour of my skin, I am that pale!
3 December 2020 Jeff Ross I’ve actually tried to roast somebody that I don’t like, and it doesn’t go well. Either they’re a bad sport or I’m not as funny as I could be.
3 December 2020 Elayne Boosler I’ve never been married, but I tell people I’m divorced so they won’t think something’s wrong with me.
3 December 2020 Rita Rudner When I eventually met Mr. Right I had no idea that his first name was Always.
3 December 2020 Rick Baker It’s a funny relationship that makeup artists have. I always feel kind of like a dentist. People look at me and think of pain.
3 December 2020 Andrew Stanton Even as a kid I was never the generator of humor, but I always knew who was funny, who to hang out with.
3 December 2020 Calvin Trillin If it’s inappropriate to write about, if there’s nothing funny about it, then it’s not funny.
3 December 2020 Reba McEntire To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funny bone.
3 December 2020 Leslie Fiedler Hemingway seems to be in a funny position. People nowadays can’t identify with him closely as a member of their own generation, and he isn’t yet historical.
3 December 2020 Heath Ledger I’m just not one of those naturally funny, relaxed actors who enjoy the spotlight and are so good at it.
3 December 2020 Gloria Steinem I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career.
3 December 2020 Busy Philipps I actually feel like, for a lot of my career, I wasn’t able to show my comedic range. I did a lot of dramas and dramedies. I was on ‘E.R.’ That’s not generally thought of as a funny show.
3 December 2020 Nicholson Baker Wikipedia is just an incredible thing. It is fact-encirclingly huge, and it is idiosyncratic, careful, messy, funny, shocking and full of simmering controversies – and it is free, and it is fast.
