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

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

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.

Find the most talented person in the room and if it's not you, go stand next to him. Hang out with him. try to be helpful.

The thinnest thing in the world is the border between good and evil... my next The Opposite Of Magic.

If you want to know someone look at what they do when they are in pain and notice what their not doing.

If a man could make the earth heaven to get you, could also make it hell for you if he couldn't get you.

What is your quest in life?

Education is the cornerstone of liberty.

I want to make college tuition-free for the middle class and debt-free for everyone else.

The odds are not in your favor the older you get, especially if you're a woman in this business.

For true patriots to be silent, is dangerous.
