- Television has brought back murder into the home - where it belongs.
- Alfred Hitchcock on Funny
- Television has changed the American child from an irresistable force to an immovable object.
- Laurence J. Peter on Funny
- Tell us your phobias and we will tell you what you are afraid of.
- Robert Benchley on Funny
- That's a funny thing, fame. People definitely do treat you differently. When you begin to be successful, people say, 'Don't go changing.' Well, that's easy to say, but the fact is, you don't change at all - other people do.
- Jonathan Rhys Meyers on Funny
- That's my only goal. Surround myself with funny people, and make sure everyone has a good time and works hard.
- That's what I hate about a lot of comedies, when you're hitting a line or making it funny.
- Jennifer Aniston on Funny
- That's why I like to get out there, and get people to see the other side of Mitt, and know us in a different reflection when you see the family and how funny he is with the boys and with the grandkids. And you know, just what a super guy he is. That's part of what I am doing, is letting people see the other side of Mitt.
- Ann Romney on Funny
- The American audience has really opened up to women being A.) funny and B.) kinda crude. 'Bridesmaids' is R-rated, and I think it was a major coup for women to have an R-rated comedy that did really well. Same as 'Bad Teacher.'
- Chris Pratt on Funny
- 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.
- The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible.
- David Ogilvy on Funny
- The best measure of a man's honesty isn't his income tax return. It's the zero adjust on his bathroom scale.
- Arthur C. Clarke on Funny
- The comedians I liked were Bill Cosby and Steven Wright, like just always as a comedic actor. I always liked Gary Larson, who's really funny for a cartoonist, obviously.
- Demetri Martin on Funny
- The day I made that statement, about the inventing the internet, I was tired because I'd been up all night inventing the Camcorder.
- The digital camera is a great invention because it allows us to reminisce. Instantly.
- Demetri Martin on Funny
- The fact that the Kardashians could be more popular than a show like 'Mad Men' is disgusting. It's a super disgusting part of our culture, but I still find it funny to make a joke about it.
- Jonah Hill on Funny
- The fans of 'The Hunger Games,' of the book, are very passionate. It's funny: Even at my concerts there are people holding up 'Cinna' signs.
- Lenny Kravitz on Funny
- The first time I sang in the church choir two hundred people changed their religion.
- Fred Allen on Funny
- The follow your dreams thing is really important because so many people are railroaded into taking other paths by their family, their friends, people who should be supportive going, 'What are you talking about?' Even just seemingly regular career paths, but if it's not what people expect for you they kind of react funny.
- The four building blocks of the universe are fire, water, gravel and vinyl.
- Dave Barry on Funny
- The funniest racism is the racism between minorities. It's something you don't see dramatized, but almost every minority I know who's my age, they have these funny stories about their parents stereotyping other minorities.
- Mindy Kaling on Funny
- The funny thing about me that most people never really understand is that, at heart, I'm really a jock.
- Billy Corgan on Funny
- The funny thing is I'm not bothered or sad about being on my own - after all I've never had a husband.
- Francesca Annis on Funny
- The funny thing is people won't let me pay for things. I'll be in a restaurant and the manager will say, 'Oh no, it's on the house.'
- Richard Branson on Funny
- 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.
- Liev Schreiber on Funny
- The funny thing is that I'm the girl who no one sees at the beach. Ask anyone who's traveled with me. Normally, I'm in so many layers, I look like Lawrence of Arabia!
- The funny thing is the songs that people think are about me probably aren't. And the songs that are probably are the ones they wouldn't think... so that's where it kind of is funny.
- LeAnn Rimes on Funny
- The funny thing is, Dennis Miller got me back into comedy.
- Tommy Chong on Funny
- The funny thing is, the girls that I'm always up against for roles are pretty nice and cool, like Emma Watson. She's awesome.
- Amanda Seyfried on Funny
- The great thing is that the funny side of getting old is fuel for my comedy.
- Steve Coogan on Funny
- The history of the relationship between comedy and swimming is short indeed. Of course it is always funny when someone falls into water, but that's about it.
- Arthur Smith on Funny
- The IRS! They're like the Mafia, they can take anything they want!
- Jerry Seinfeld on Funny
- The Islam of the 18th, 19th and first half of the 20th century was a poor thing. Nobody bothered about it. Islam was that funny sort of pure system of beliefs that depressed people in the Middle East held as their religion.
- John Keegan on Funny
- The key is just to ignore the pain, because physical comedy only works if you see someone get hurt and they aren't actually hurt. If someone gets hit in the face with a bat, falls down, and gets back up, it's funny. If they stay down and their jaw is wired shut in the next scene, it's really tragic and weird. You have to pretend it doesn't hurt.
- Chris Pratt on Funny
- The kind of funny irony is that a lot of people talk about ethical meat eating as if it's a way to care about things, but also not to alienate yourself from the rest of the world. But it's so much more alienating than vegetarianism.
- Jonathan Safran Foer on Funny
- The last person they expected to connect with a screenplay was the comedic, blonde actress with the funny voice.
- Joey Lauren Adams on Funny
- The middle class is so funny, it's the class I know best, and it's the class where you find the most pretension, so that's what makes the middle classes so funny.
- J. K. Rowling on Funny
- The misconception is that standup comics are always on. I don't know any really funny comics that are annoying and constantly trying to be funny all the time.
- The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' but 'That's funny...'
- Isaac Asimov on Funny
- The most important thing is to write material that YOU think is funny. If you don't think it's funny, but you're convinced that other people will think it is, well they won't.
- The music industry is really funny, when you have a hit record, everyone knows who are you, everyone wants to do duets with you, then if you have a miss, people suffer from amnesia.
- The next time you have a thought... let it go.
- The nightmare is you spend the rest of your life being funny at parties and then people say, 'Why didn't you do that when you were on television?'
- Conan O'Brien on Funny
- The one thing you shouldn't do is try to tell a cab driver how to get somewhere.
- Jimmy Fallon on Funny
- The only time a woman really succeeds in changing a man is when he is a baby.
- Natalie Wood on Funny
- The only time I ever enjoyed ironing was the day I accidentally got gin in the steam iron.
- Phyllis Diller on Funny
- The people I grew up around who I really liked were quick on the draw. It always just wowed me. And my mum would make weird funny comments. I can see in myself her self-deprecating, hippie humour. I can't take myself too seriously.
- Drew Barrymore on Funny
- The promos with all of the beautiful women probably attracted some men, but the mystery story line is pretty cool. It's got that dark edge, and people will watch anything funny.
- James Denton on Funny
- The prospects for a coherent, hilarious and consistent American comedy seem to lessen every year, as the poor waterlogged, gassy corpse called 'Evan Almighty' proved when it floated ashore recently. So there's a temptation to think too highly of Robin Williams's uneven but occasionally funny 'License to Wed.'
- Stephen Hunter on Funny
- The reason there are two senators for each state is so that one can be the designated driver.
- The reason why you know more funny dudes than funny chicks is that dudes are funnier than chicks. If my daughter has a mediocre sense of humor, I'm just gonna tell her, 'Be a staff writer for a sitcom. Because they'll have to hire you, they can't really fire you, and you don't have to produce that much. It'll be awesome.'
- Adam Carolla on Funny
