The only time you can smile when you're talking about the war in Iraq is when you go, Well, two Iraqis walk into a bar, hahaha.

Manny FarberIf, for instance, they have heard something from the postman, they attribute it to a semi-official statement; if they have fallen into conversation with a stranger at a bar, they can conscientiously describe him as a source that has hitherto proved unimpeachable.

I mean a little bit of everything. It depends on what I'm doing.

I'd had three or four years of people ignoring me, and I'd kind of gotten used to it.
