Anyone will acknowledge that there's a lot of people other than those who are elected who run the government, and who are in permanent positions, and long-term positions, appointed positions - not voted in by anybody. That kind of gnaws away, I think, at the idea of democracy. The two-party system, again, is an issue. What we see is no desire on behalf of anyone to begin to address these problems.

It may sound weird, but I don't really look for culture, particularly in an American city.

I don't want the news to be patriotic. I don't want to see flags on the lapels of the anchors. I don't want any of that.

You know, every time a summer movie comes out, people think they're gonna get rich off of the merchandise.

We did our best to do a Fox show, frankly, I don't think the difficulties we had at Fox would be exclusive to Fox. It's tough to be funny, because there's so many eyeballs and there's so much money at stake that I think everything is just kind of over-thought. And it's tough to be daring and do something different, either with regards to content or even structure.

Voting really doesn't mean anything. I wish I could say something different, but I think it's kind of a sham.

And I'm not so in love with making people mad that I want to live my life around it.
