David Quotes

The biggest threat to any politician is an artist. Comedians unleashed can do a great deal of damage. David Letterman can do more damage than any Republican assault by Newt Gingrich Picture Quote #1

I would be so mad if I saw something called a memoir, and then it was Mike Birbiglia. It would be so infuriating. It’s like, ‘Who is this guy, and why does he have a memoir?’ David Letterman could write a memoir. Joan Rivers could. I’m just a nobody. I’m a comedian and a writer Picture Quote #1

Everybody gets inspired by different things. I grew up wanting to go up the street with a video camera because I liked watching David Letterman yell out of the ninth floor of Rockefeller Center with a megaphone at people on the street. I thought that was a riot Picture Quote #1

I was told David Letterman and Kaufman had heart attacks on the same day: David Letterman’s heart attack was at a hospital in NYC.

Tom Hooper had done ‘John Adams,’ and David Lynch did ‘Twin Peaks.’ I figured I could do eight hours of television, and I wanted to Picture Quote #1

France and America have a long history of mutual loathing and longing. Americans still dream of Paris; Parisians still dream of the America they find in the movies of David Lynch Picture Quote #1

I always say that in my career as an actress, I’ve always worked with people like David Lynch or Guy Maddin or Peter Weir who are considered not mainstream directors and that could be because they are like my dad.

David Lynch was actually the one who first inspired me to become a filmmaker when I was in high school. His films just took me to that dream place that lifts you out of the norm, out of the everyday life, and that is kind of what allured me Picture Quote #1

I’ll do anything to keep everyone laughing. Things get too intense on film sets. I remember on The Elephant Man, I used to imitate a cat without moving my lips. David Lynch would say, Cut! Sorry, we’ve got a noise somewhere on set. Everyone would be looking around for this cat Picture Quote #1

It’s amazing how quickly human beings adapt, isn’t it? It was such a great crew, and David [Lynch] was wonderful to work with [on ‘The Elephant Man’]. It was a very thrilling time, actually Picture Quote #1

Parents often give middle names just so that later, when they’re yelling at the kid, they can drag it out. Henry David Thoreau, you come in here this instant! Picture Quote #1

What I treasure most at any moment is intimacy, surprise, a sense of mystery, wit, depth and love. A handful of cherished friends offer me this, and the occasional singer or film-maker or artist.

Anyone who prays for the death of his enemy must consider who tempted Jesus Christ, the persecution of the apostles and the Psalm 23 of David Picture Quote #1

Here lies David Garrick, describe me who can, An abridgment of all that was pleasant in man Picture Quote #1

So-called reality TV, which dominates British channels, is destroying what made it cherishable to me and lots of others in the first place. I loved Alan Clarke, Ken Loach and Alan Bleasdale’s work. In fact the first TV dramas I ever saw were ‘Screen Twos’ produced by David Thompson, who also produced a lot of Alan Clarke Picture Quote #1

I knew David Benioff a bit socially. I knew his wife, Amanda Peet. He’s a smart guy, so I always sought him out at dinner parties Picture Quote #1
