However frat-boy humor is funny and it always will be.

Well it's a humor strip so my first responsibility has always been to entertain the reader... But if in addition I can help move readers to thought and judgment about issues that concern me so much the better.

Never say a humorous thing to a man who does not possess humor. He will always use it in evidence against you.

For the most part comedians are pretty friendly with each other. They always say they badmouth each other but most of the time they're friends. We're the only ones that can really stand our type of humor.

I think in life the sense of humor and comedy always exists.

There's always a source for humor.

Every time I do a movie like 'Finding Neverland' or 'Chocolat' or 'Shakespeare' in Love ' we deal with the creative process but there's humor and fun along the way. I always love that kind of movie.

People of humor are always in some degree people of genius.

A laugh is a surprise. And all humor is physical. I was always athletic so that came naturally to me.

Wherever my story takes me however dark and difficult the theme there is always some hope and redemption not because readers like happy endings but because I am an optimist at heart. I know the sun will rise in the morning that there is a light at the end of every tunnel.

I don't want to tell your story because you're a insensitive self-centered moron. I've told a lot of stories about young people and I always feel there's hope.

You travel with the hope that something unexpected will happen. It has to do with enjoying being lost and figuring it out and the satisfaction. I always get a little disappointed when I know too well where I'm going or when I've lived in a place so long that there's no chance I could possibly get lost.

Boast is always a cry of despair except in the young it is a cry of hope.
