Funny Quotes

You do remember things that people say in movies. You remember particular lines and things that are funny. But, you also remember really strong images. Images have a way of bypassing your brain and hitting you emotionally. There are so many things from movies that are remembered, that are just looks on people’s faces or incredible vistas or beautiful pictures. That is a very important part of cinema Picture Quote #1

My biggest influence is someone I really don’t know at all: Tina Fey. Smart, funny, beautiful, self-deprecating, also a mom and a wife Picture Quote #1

I didn’t grow up identifying with beauty. I grew up thinking I could be smart and funny - those are the things I got feedback on Picture Quote #1

It’s funny how, when things seem the darkest, moments of beauty present themselves in the most unexpected places Picture Quote #1

I don’t care what the haters and naysayers say. If they make jokes about me, I’ll laugh because they’ll probably be funny Picture Quote #1

There are precedents for what happens when societies allow the divide between rich and poor to get so huge that it stops being funny and starts becoming a sick, blood-boiling joke. If you had a Tardis, you could go back to 1917 and ask the Russian royal family how it was all going Picture Quote #1

At home in L.A., Sunday is lazy. It’s the wife and me lying in bed with coffee, watching ‘The Soup’ or something funny on TiVo. The kid will occasionally join us. Eventually, breakfast is at a place down the street called Paty’s. And we always have some kind of great dinner - my wife makes a great roast beef Picture Quote #1

I tweet from bed. I love it because it’s so quick. And it’s funny. But it also leaves a lot of room for error because new people don’t sense the sarcasm - there’s no sarcasm font Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, isn’t it? When you are young you just want to be old, and then later you wish you could go back to being a kid Picture Quote #1

On the stage you’re there, it’s live. There’s a beginning, a middle, an end. When something is funny you hear it right away Picture Quote #1

You know, I’ve always thought that it would be really funny if somebody made a romantic comedy where absolutely everything went well from beginning to end Picture Quote #1

You’re only as sick as your secrets. Either it comes out their way or my way. I talk about myself behind my back. And I’m funny about it Picture Quote #1

The funny thing is I’m not bothered or sad about being on my own - after all I’ve never had a husband Picture Quote #1

Jason [Nash] is just someone that I’ve known socially and through his stand-up, seeing him do different comedy shows, and I just really like him. I think he’s a funny guy and he has a unique perspective on being a dad and a husband Picture Quote #1

At the end of the day I’m writing comedy. If you get too realistic as a comedy writer with your disasters, it stops being funny Picture Quote #1

It feels amazing to just be here and be able to share my jokes with the world. It’s not so much about being a girl, it’s about being a funny comic Picture Quote #1

Don’t make being a girl or a victim part of your stand-up act. If you encounter sexism in the business, don’t bring it on stage; it’s not funny Picture Quote #1

Every set has their own personalities and their own quirks. It’s funny comparing starring in a show to going in and doing recurring work - there’s already a rhythm that’s been established, and people know each other so well. It’s like being a guest in someone else’s home Picture Quote #1

I used to love being the class clown. I loved to make jokes and make people laugh. There was a set of students who would find it funny. But the cool students were like, ‘Eeew!’ Picture Quote #1

And I think that being able to make people laugh and write a book that’s funny makes the information go down a lot easier and it makes it a lot more fun to read, easier to understand, and often stronger. So there’s all kinds of advantages to it Picture Quote #1

Rapping can be repetition sometimes. Sometimes you gotta highlight your words in a certain kind of way. So I always was a fan of sing-rapping. It was always funny to me a little bit, and I think that being funny and being able to laugh, even at yourself, is a form of flattery Picture Quote #1

Whether it’s an innate ability or an acquired way of regarding the world around us, being labeled as funny can only be accepted as a compliment Picture Quote #1

It’s funny. People often compare me to other humor essayists. They’re usually quite nice comparisons; I will accept those gladly. But I am always sort of appalled at the idea of being lumped with other, more chick-y female writers. And the truth is probably that neither comparison is accurate Picture Quote #1

Friends’ played in this territory of being funny, and then also just grabbing your heart. And not afraid of that. It was a comedic soap opera. Not being afraid to have an audience feel something, laugh and cry, was quite extraordinary and quite wonderful Picture Quote #1

The funny thing about making this record and being away from the girls and on my own in LA is that it allowed me to reflect on how much we’ve accomplished Picture Quote #1

I am not a trained writer and I don’t think anyone would accuse me of being a funny person. But I feel God has truly blessed me Picture Quote #1

There’s a story everywhere. Being bored to death someplace is basically a funny proposition. What you have to watch out for is you don’t write a boring story about a boring place Picture Quote #1

I like situational comedy when people are being completely serious and yet you can find something extremely funny, not jokes Picture Quote #1

In order for comedy to be funny you have to play the truth of the moment. But if you’re not being completely truthful to the basis of the character, its not going to be funny Picture Quote #1
