For me, when I do my best acting, it's mainly imagination. Then I really have a lot of fun with it.

What happened happened. What's gonna happen, is gonna happen.

It's so interesting to watch Ben Stiller work because he just knows what's funny.

Eddie Murphy is just so off-the-cuff and can make anything funny. You hope that someday you'll acquire that skill, but maybe you're born with that.

You can have a kid and just be off at work all the time, and it's all mom. But, I spent a lot of time with him, so now, every time I see him, he's like, "Dada!"

I took a year and a half off, when my kid was born, because I didn't want to be one of those dads where the kid doesn't know who his dad is.

I grew up reading the newspapers, mostly the sports section. I was a wrestler and would check to see if I was ranked.

A good comic explores the imagination, but it's always got to have those notes of truth running through it.

I've always noticed that girls cry way easier than guys do.

I'm clearly not a writer, but I'm always a fan of them.

I'm just an actor. If it's drama, I add as much humour as the part will stand. And if it's a comedy, add as much drama as you can, so it balances out; you don't wanna be too serious.

It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.

Our position was: If you don't attack us, there won't be any violence; if you bring violence to us, we will defend ourselves.

After twenty annual visits, I am still surprised each time I return to see this giant asparagus bed of alabaster and rose and green skyscrapers.

The MacGuffin is that thing which is most important to us - that most essential thing. The audience will supply it, each member for himself.

I'm terribly attention-seeking. It's very different once you get all this attention, though. Because then you want to control it. And you can't exactly.

I honestly don't know how you live without having a cat inside your house. It's like having a little living piece of art that is also very warm and soft.

Stumbling isn't falling.

Congress is the great enabler, constitutionally, for progressive society, and it's the great graveyard, the way it's been behaving, against a prosperous society, or another billionaire or two.

I'm afraid I'm just too intense to have soft ideas, you know, about what to read when you're trying to pass the time.

Whoever stubbornly refuses to accept criticism will suddenly be broken beyond repair.
