“You wouldn’t want to see a movie where the bad guys triumph over the good guys all the time. You’d get bummed out, and you’d just stay at home and watch the news.”

They look right. And you move left.

I haven’t seen this many men dressed in women’s clothing since my bachelor party.

Violence – look, we live in a violent world, man. This country was founded on violence. Who’s kidding who?

I never think there’s any competition between films. I root for everybody’s films. I especially have a fond place in my heart for graphic novels and comics.

I wake up laughing. Yes, I wake up in the morning and there I am just laughing my head off.

I think that the “what if” game is what you guys get to do. I don’t have to do that. I hate the “what if” game. I’m such a believer in everything happening the way it’s supposed to happen.

I would say, ‘I’m alone, but I’m not lonely.’ But I was just kidding myself.

No one predicts the future. No one tries to.

If I had a choice, I would do comedy all the time. It’s just the most challenging thing. To make someone laugh is the most challenging thing, and the most rewarding thing, in entertainment.

If you think anyone goes out and commits crimes because of some daffy film they’ve seen, then I question your judgment.

Art imitates life and, sometimes, life imitates art. It’s a weird combination of elements.

Justin Timberlake is terrific in this film. I told him it’s time to stop singing.

My favorite job is being a father. I have four girls now. They’re a captive audience.

Cinema has no boundaries, we all belong to the same artistic community.

I could never write my memoirs, just because too many people are still alive and would be hurt.

I never think about the downs. Well, only when I get asked during interviews.

I like cottage cheese. That’s why I want to try other dwelling cheeses, too. How about studio apartment cheese? Tent cheese? Mobile home cheese? Do not eat mobile home cheese in a tornado.

You don’t have to be a house to be haunted.

Television has brought back murder into the home – where it belongs.

I had only one superstition. I made sure to touch all the bases when I hit a home run.

Whoever wants music instead of noise, joy instead of pleasure, soul instead of gold, creative work instead of business, passion instead of foolery, finds no home in this trivial world of ours.

Every Strike is one step closer to a Home Run.

It’s quantity of time at home and quality of time at work that counts; don’t mix them up!

Think you’re escaping and run into yourself. Longest way round is the shortest way home.
