I think of myself as a real writer, not just someone who dabbles in it, so I deserve some credit.

Nothing reinforces a professional relationship more than enjoying success with someone.

No matter what I have to say, I'm still trying to say it in comedic form.

I had a lot of fun working with John Candy. We had a pretty good rapport.

My characters aren't losers. They're rebels. They win by their refusal to play by everyone else's rules.

Acting is all about big hair and funny props... All the great actors knew it. Olivier knew it, Brando knew it.

If Chevy Chase had not been an actor, he might have been a very popular guy in advertising or whatever field he would have gone into, because of his charisma.

I always claim that the writer has done 90 percent of the director's work.

I collect spores, molds, and fungus.

I was the little guy who knew how to tie a necktie. It came from having absentee parents. They were tremendously loving and caring people who, by circumstance, had to go to work.

The person who is wrapped up in God keeps moving. That is the difference between a Spirit on fire and a Spirit that's burning out. From the book: Removing Your Shame Label.

The habit of questioning authority is one of the most valuable gifts that a book, or a teacher, can give a young would-be scientist.

Nothing is so dangerous as being too modern one is apt to grow old-fashioned quite suddenly.

We see more and more of our Presidents and know less and less about what they do.

Aussie culture is pretty relaxed in general, but at the same time people know how to work really hard to go above and beyond what's expected of them.

I like shirts and sweaters that fall off the shoulder or plaid button-ups.

Amplification is the vice of modern oratory. It is an insult to an assembly of reasonable men, disgusting and revolting instead ofpersuading. Speeches measured by the hour, die by the hour.
