In this desperate way, I started many a comedy.

Think about yourself at least once in your life. Otherwise you may miss the best comedy in this world.

In the creation of comedy, it is paradoxical that tragedy stimulates the spirit of ridicule; because ridicule, I suppose is an attitude of defiance.

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

Making fun is serious business.

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