I think what's dangerous [about comedy] is that you're coming into the room announcing your intentions.

The easiest time to be funny is during a fairly serious situation. That way you can break the ice.

Old man with an old phone. That's never not funny.

Animals talking are very rarely funny. But animals behaving as animals - always funny.

Celebrities and 'famous' people are just regular folks. I know, it's a shocking and potentially dangerous statement.

Everyone is sort of in their own little area counting lines and no one talks when film's not rolling. There's constantly actors coming to me back behind the monitor screaming at me, "Why did my line count drop?" It's a nasty tense environment.

I always give myself a little part in every movie.
