Sometimes your disappointments make you a stronger person for the future.
Since God knows our future our personalities and our capacity to listen He isn't ever going to say more to us than we can deal with at the moment.
A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it.
Happy is the person who knows what to remember of the past what to enjoy in the present and what to plan for in the future.
The last person they expected to connect with a screenplay was the comedic blonde actress with the funny voice.
I would do it today because the thing that appealed to me was not necessarily the mechanics of the robot but it was his personality and how funny and charming he was.
Comedy is so subjective. You could be in a room with 400 people laughing at a joke and you could just not think it's funny. You're just sitting there like 'Am I in the twilight zone? Why is everyone laughing?' It's such a personal thing. People have such a personal visceral response to comedy.
There's a darkness under 'The Hangover' because ultimately there's a missing person and it's not really that funny. There's a sort of darkness under it that I love and still people are laughing as hard if not harder than they did in 'Old School.'
There is nothing funny about a well-adjusted intelligent person making the right choices.
I understand a woman who validates herself by getting attention from the opposite sex. I have a friend who is that to a T... Doesn't mean she isn't a good person. That's a funny character to play.
I'm not a very serious person. You know how they say that clowns are very funny in public and are really sad at home? I'm really kind of stupid at home and more serious in public.
Being funny with a funny voice is more my comfort zone a broader character that I try to humanize a kind of silly or wacky persona that I try to fill in.
I actually was class clown but I don't know how that happened because I've never been considered an outwardly funny person.
I actually was class clown but I don't know how that happened because I've never been considered an outwardly funny person-as the people in this room will attest.
The funny thing is that I write and I act a lot about being Jewish but I don't really think about it as a regular person.
He is very dry but also very funny... I think people tend to feel odd when I do my act. Unless you are an ironic person it's not a good place for you to be.
For some reason people find me funny. It's quite hard to define why a thought is funny. It's even harder to define why a person would be funny. It's a word that I can't define at all. But whether I know quite what it is or not I seem to be it.
I don't happen to have a sense of humor personally so I don't know what's funny about a character... This happens to be a feature of my life generally.
I really don't know what makes a comedian. I think it's a family background and environment. Yet if you put the same ingredients in another person he may never utter a funny line.
'Funny People' is my favorite performance of myself to date. Even though it's a comedy and there are serious moments I really felt like Leo felt like a real person. It didn't feel like I was playing myself. Whether it's a comedy or drama I just try to make it as realistic as possible.
To me what separates a funny movie from a good movie is something personal.
The audience changes every night. You're the same person. You have to speak your mind and do the stuff that you think is funny and makes you laugh.
It's funny recently I've started to notice people's impersonations of me and it's basically like a hyperactive child.
Being a funny person does an awful lot of things to you. You feel that you mustn't get serious with people. They don't expect it from you and they don't want to see it. You're not entitled to be serious you're a clown.
