Life literally abounds in comedy if you just look around you.

Rhetoric does not get you anywhere, because Hitler and Mussolini are just as good at rhetoric. But if you can bring these people down with comedy, they stand no chance.

Look, I don't want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colorfully, or you're not alive.

Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die.

Well, just being stupid and politically incorrect doesn't work. You can be politically incorrect if you're smart.

I'll accept bad taste in a minute, as long as there's some great comedy minds and performances.
