Comedy Quotes

I worked at comedy clubs - if I can use the term ‘work’ - for several years. I middled at one point. I never made it; I was never a headliner. I never made enough time to write enough good material, in my opinion Picture Quote #1

I have plenty of dream roles because there is so much I want to do, but my dream year would be to be in a single-camera comedy and then, on my hiatus, film a little low-budget indie drama. That would be a dream 12-month period. A dream role depends on having good material and working with people that I can learn from Picture Quote #1

I’m just looking to make good movies and looking to be as good as I can be in them and that’s about it. But I feel much more comfortable doing a comedy, but the fact that I got to try a few dramas, I feel I’ve tested myself a little bit Picture Quote #1

I think in most cases, if you’re with good people, comedy creation happens faster in collaboration. That’s how I can tell if it’s a good collaboration: If it’s faster than me by myself, then it works. If it’s slower than me by myself, then I get out of the room Picture Quote #1

Comedy is the most difficult. Comic timing is something which you either have it in you, or you don’t. You have to have a good sense of humour to be able to understand it. A split second can make you lose the punch Picture Quote #1

I’m not good at telling a joke, but I can say a line in a certain way that makes people uncomfortable because they don’t know whether to laugh or not, and I love that comedy Picture Quote #1

Jackass: The Movie’ is great. I think it’s in the tradition of physical comedy, which I’m really interested in. Its relationship to gravity, and how gravity acts on the body Picture Quote #1

If it was a great script and a great character, I would love to do a romantic comedy Picture Quote #1

Good comedy helps people know they’re not alone. Great comedy provides an answer Picture Quote #1

Comedy is a shared experience, and I think it’s great to open that to a wide demographic Picture Quote #1

[Mel Gibson] played this kind of sadistic motorcycle cop. He was terrific. And he had this great sense of visual comedy Picture Quote #1

Catherine Tate was a proven comedy actress from a comedy background with great taste. I knew her work, and was an incredible fan Picture Quote #1

One of the great things with comedy is that there’s no such thing as a mediocre comedy; it’s either uproarious or crap. That’s the problem Picture Quote #1

I’d like to do a comedy, actually. I think it would be great to do a sitcom or something like that. I’m pretty much open to anything Picture Quote #1

To see a comedy in an environment where you’re surrounded by other people that are laughing is great. That’s probably more satisfying than just watching it by yourself Picture Quote #1

Not everyone can be as successful a performer as myself, who gave 10 great performances the first time I ever did comedy, and then toiled in obscurity for years Picture Quote #1

I could see how people get addicted to animation, and I understand why it’s so great for comedy. You can do whatever you want and it just happens Picture Quote #1

Being around Lily Tomlin has been great, how she treats people, how she handles herself, how she goes about interpreting her character or deciding how the comedy should work Picture Quote #1

I had just finished working on a play, and we started to talk to the ‘Happy Endings’ folks. There was interest from both sides, which was exciting, because I thought it was very fresh. Adam Pally’s just a really funny, talented dude. I thought I’d be great to jump on and do some comedy Picture Quote #1

I thought I’d be living a much more bohemian life and be very poor. I never thought I’d do comedy or be married living in the suburbs. Every time I try to plan my life out it just doesn’t come to pass, and I think that’s a great experience Picture Quote #1

I started to respect older actors when I was young and then contemporary actors later on. Then I learned respect for comedy. When I was first doing theatre, I thought of it as just a means to become Sarah Bernhardt or someone like that. But acting with young people has been a great learning experience Picture Quote #1

The greatest way for people to experience a comedy is to go in not knowing anything about it. But because of marketing, it’s impossible. Marketing meaning that in order to get people to come you can’t just go, ‘Hey, there’s a great movie - we’re not going to show you anything from it but trust us!’ Picture Quote #1

Raising Arizona’ is maybe my favorite comedy of all time. What’s great about it is that as slapstick as it gets, it has great moments of emotion and caring. Them bringing the baby back and Trey Wilson’s character. I love that, man Picture Quote #1
