Material Quotes

[George Carlin] was obsessive about time; he was obsessive compulsive about his material and making things shorter and more perfect. He did an HBO hour every other year. It’s live; you have to be off-stage at 55 minutes. It’s a network; you’ve got to be off. And it’s perfect Picture Quote #1

When you’re coming up with new material, it’s not always gonna be good. The only way to learn is for it not to get a laugh, so you can adjust it and come back the next day to see if it’s working right. Next time, you might get a different laugh. You’re constantly rebuilding Picture Quote #1

I think anytime you start relying on a format to get you by you’ve got weak material to begin with Picture Quote #1

When I sign on for a project, I’m there to give the director all the material he or she might need to tell their story, and that’s the number one priority Picture Quote #1

Before Allah nothing of our material existence impresses Allah. It is our righteousness and our uprightness alone that impresses God Picture Quote #1

We should never let material things get ahead of God or become so important in our lives that we can’t walk away from them if He tells us to. Anything you own that has a hold on you is a problem Picture Quote #1

Seemingly, man has learned to live without God, preoccupied and indifferent toward Him and concerned only about material security and pleasure Picture Quote #1

You don’t need the ‘voice of God’ commentary. Instead, by juxtaposing contradictory or confirmatory witnesses and archive material, your point of view becomes obvious Picture Quote #1

Something that’s good in the mini-culture of ‘Happy Endings’ is that the goal is to try and make each other laugh.

Let’s just go for it.’ Picture Quote #1

First of all, Craig Lucas’ work, any of it, for any actor, is such good material. It’s so alive in such a poetic, yet human way. It’s theatrical, but it lets you emotionally connect with the characters Picture Quote #1

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 want to point out to adults that there is a world of good material available to you now in comic form - in this medium - and learn to give it your support because the more you support it, the better the material will be as it comes out 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
