What a sad business, being funny.

I could kill laughs more quickly by overdoing something than by any other method.

Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.

All I need to make a comedy is a park, a policeman and a pretty girl.

If a few slapstick comedies could arouse such excitement, was there not something bogus about all celebrity?

In this desperate way, I started many a comedy.
