I got to work with Rachel Dratch, and she just had such a funny, roll-with-it attitude when she would approach the stage and could turn anything into a gem Picture Quote #1

I don’t steer towards anything. I steer towards character and truth. If it’s funny then so be it. If it’s dramatic, so be it. I just steer towards characters Picture Quote #1

I’m wondering if the crew [from’The Hateful Eight’] had some sort of nickname for me. I am blanking at anything truly funny, so I’ll just say, ‘No Phone Quentin’ Picture Quote #1

I’ve dated some women who have turned me on to some funny things that are strange for men to actually do, but these things have become part of my process. I think the things I do for my appearance help make me look better. I even colour my hair because I like how it makes me look Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, in a way the actor is a writer. It’s not like the two things are so separate as to be like apples and oranges. The writer and the actor are one Picture Quote #1

I guess when I think about it, one of the things I like to dramatise, and what is sometimes funny, is someone coming unglued. I don’t consider myself someone who is making the argument that I support these choices. I just think it can be funny Picture Quote #1

Try to find someone with a sense of humor. That’s an important thing to have because when you get into an argument, one of the best ways to diffuse it is to be funny. You don’t want to hide away from a point, because some points are serious, but you’d rather have a discussion that was a discussion, rather than an argument Picture Quote #1

It’s funny now how much we look at - whatever you want to call it: art, design, culture stuff, film - online, and how in the online world, you’re instantly global Picture Quote #1

It’s kind of funny, with all of the different outlets that come from acting that you could try, I would love to direct and kind of be involved in art direction, too Picture Quote #1

I make big objects that are simple, bright and clear, kind of ironic but hopefully funny because I love the shapes, and I get inspiration from toys and books, and I believe in art for everyone Picture Quote #1

The funny thing is musicians often love to go to see visual art because you’ve got all these pictures to turn into metaphors Picture Quote #1

It’s obviously funny to be a meme, so I could be down with it in that regard, but it also belittles one’s art Picture Quote #1

Game design is a funny thing. There are people out there who are really good at it, but it’s not clear that they can teach it. It’s a very intuitive process. It’s an art Picture Quote #1

I’m very silly as a person, but quality silliness on-screen has more of an art to it. Harrison Ford, whom I was in ‘Morning Glory’ with, has mastered that dry funny better than anyone Picture Quote #1

Podcasts feature comedians being as funny as they can be in a non-censored situation. It’s really akin to standup in a way. When you go see a comedian in standup, that is the most pure, unadulterated form of their art Picture Quote #1

The funny thing about my films is that you can make little piles of them. You could make little piles of the movie that were family movies, you could make a little art movie pile, you could make a little action movie pile Picture Quote #1

I think the funny thing about acting for me - and I hold it in a very holy, spiritual way - not to be overly fundamentalist about it, but it’s that important to me - is that it is an ancient healing art Picture Quote #1

I don’t know why we, in the art world, cannot unpack things and sort of make hybrid notions of a practice. We’re very rigid. It’s funny, though; in music, we have no problem sampling, mixing and remixing. But in the art world, why can’t we take little parts of history and mix it together? Picture Quote #1

Some of my friends say that I only talk about myself. But it is funny: my house is covered in art but with nothing of my own, and when I’m working, I’m only thinking about what the client wants. So I don’t see it that way, but maybe it’s true. I mean, they are my friends Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, because I’m so associated with digital art and computer art, and yet I spend so little time in front of the computer Picture Quote #1

And regardless of the fact that in this country, certainly in the arts, we treat comedy as a second-class citizen, I’ve never thought of it that way. I’ve always thought it to be important. The last time I looked, the Greeks were holding up two masks. I’ve always thought of it not only as having equal value, but as the craft of it, being funny Picture Quote #1

Being funny, it turns out, is like being a bank. It’s a confidence trick. As long as everyone believes in you, you are fine Picture Quote #1

It’s funny because I think, as a general rule, that people seem to think that if you do lots of different things over the course of, like, a timeline, it means that you kind of disregard what you did before. But that’s not true of me. I still genuinely like everything I did as much as I liked it when I released it Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, because I did all of these interviews as soon as I had the baby, and they were asking questions, and I really didn’t have an idea of anything, because I was so blurry Picture Quote #1

I had a terrible time hiring rich people. It sounds funny, but the problem is when things go wrong they can ask, ‘Why am I doing this?’ You don’t ever want anybody asking that question. You want them to say, ‘I know why I’m doing it, I need the money, let’s go’ or whatever it is that draws them Picture Quote #1

I can count on one hand the people who are legendary in my book, and Tom Waits is certainly right at the top. It’s funny, though: When I tell people that I like Tom’s music, it surprises them Picture Quote #1
