When you do improv, you're everything. You're a performer, writer, and director, because you're moving the scene in the direction you want it to go, you're making it up as you go, and you're acting it.

I like writing because you can make things happen and turn out the way they never do in real life.

Most people are in marriages, and there are very few movies made about what it really is like to be married for a length of time. You always show the romantic part and all that. Or the divorce, and the horrible split, and the guy's having an affair, or she's having an affair, and they're going to get split up, whatever. But very few people just look at what actually happens in a marriage.

I was already interested in directing when I was very young. I knew that was something I was going to be doing.

Pretty much anything you laughed at in the second half of the 20th century can be traced back to Your Show Of Shows.

Women are more in touch with their feelings, they're more emotionally developed, they know what's important in life, and the men run around like idiots trying to figure that out until they meet a woman that can show them what's important.

You never know if anything is going to stand the test of time or going to be successful.
