Jokes Quotes

I think the jokes would have been a bit broader and a bit more obvious in terms of the day-to-day of country life Picture Quote #1

It is unpardonable conceit not to laugh at your own jokes. Joking is undignified; that is why it is so good for one’s soul. Do not fancy you can be a detached wit and avoid being a buffoon; you cannot. If you are the Court Jester you must be the Court Fool Picture Quote #1

He’s a very funny and very nice man. When you read the script, you want to stick with it. But when you’re with Eddie Murphy you’ve got to improvise. He’s always making jokes and making me crack up when the camera’s on Picture Quote #1

Zac Efron is like a brother who’s just goofy and crazy. He plays a lot of practical jokes Picture Quote #1

Like great art, something essential dies when great jokes are explained. So what’s the key to telling a good joke/creating great art timing Picture Quote #1

Anything where I get to write a lot of jokes and have a lot of creative control - that’s all I want Picture Quote #1

I don’t do too many jokes about current affairs, because almost every comedian always does that Picture Quote #1

I realized, in removing or rewriting these jokes, that often the jokes weren’t done or that I was using, for me, the curse words as kind of a crutch. So then I just started writing Picture Quote #1

I had some jokes that were dirty. And some of it is when I started making appearances on Conan and Letterman back in the late 90s, I think. You had to remove the curse words, or you couldn’t do some of the more explicit jokes Picture Quote #1

The best jokes resonate because they uncover ridiculousness in our daily lives, reveal the silliness - and sometimes sadness - of things we see every day Picture Quote #1

I love dark humor. I love things that are so grounded in life, but just happen to be just a little bit twisted because my sense of humor is a little bit twisted. I love jokes that shouldn’t be funny, but are. Those types of things just really make me laugh Picture Quote #1

I take a lot of pride in managing to be funny without having a victim at the end of my joke. I laugh at a really dark joke as much as the next person, but my jokes, I feel, don’t have to hurt anybody to be really funny Picture Quote #1

I’m kind of a rebound junkie. So. when a relationship goes sour, I look at the sweetness in life elsewhere. So, I date a bit. The best catharsis is to write jokes and tell 4,000 people about it Picture Quote #1

First and foremost when you’re doing comedy, you gotta be relevant and applicable to the times that you’re living in. When you try and just do comedy about who is dating who and lifestyle jokes, it gets tiring after a while. It’s hard to be funny in that realm Picture Quote #1

One thing I would say is real cops have real gallows senses of humor and make incredibly funny and inappropriate jokes in the presence of dead people all the time Picture Quote #1

My last vivid boyhood fright from books came when I was 15; I was visiting my uncle and aunt in Greenwich, and, emboldened by my success with ‘The Waste Land,’ I opened their copy of ‘Ulysses.’ The whiff of death off those remorseless, closely written pages overpowered me. So: back to soluble mysteries, and jokes that were not cosmic Picture Quote #1

I’ve done a lot of death cartoons - tombstones, Grim Reaper, illness, obituaries... I’m not great at analyzing things, but my guess is that maybe the only relief from the terror of being alive is jokes Picture Quote #1

Everyone seems to think I’m very ladylike. That I’m very cultured and intelligent. I drink alot of Diet Coke and belch. I’ve been known to use the F-word. I’ve told a few dirty jokes. I arm-wrestle Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been fascinated by the difference between the jokes you can tell your friends but you can’t tell to an audience. There’s a fine line you have to tread because you don’t know who is out there in the auditorium. A lot of people are too easily offended Picture Quote #1

What sort of difficulties would happen when people of different cultures try to come together to worship? Tiny little things such as let’s tell jokes with each other Picture Quote #1

Some comics have long routines to get them in the mood - I just prefer to sit down, write out the same jokes in a different order and then have a little prayer that I won’t be met by silence Picture Quote #1

I’ve been writing jokes since I’m fifteen. Not out of happiness, but to go to a different place, because reality wasn’t good to me Picture Quote #1

There are a lot of funny people in my family. Absolutely. There were a lot of jokes growing up around the dinner table, for sure. We didn’t grow up in a creative family Picture Quote #1

The government passed more laws to protect women from dirty jokes than to protect men from death by faulty rafters at a construction site Picture Quote #1

I went to sexaholics anonymous for six months. For research. I wanted to see the structure of the groups, how they were conducted, and what the atmosphere was like, and also to be able to describe the people as human beings, rather than as the dirty jokes that they are in our culture Picture Quote #1

The jokes were perfect! Then George Carlin started talking about the seven dirty words you can’t say on television, then it evolved into social commentary Picture Quote #1

I think comedy has evolved like every art form, and people probably do less standing around and telling jokes, and more things that have to do with reality Picture Quote #1

I made so many jokes about poor Russell Crowe, he once knocked on my dressing room door, and told me he wanted to go out on this chat show we were on to laugh with me. Now he’s ruined it. I can’t make another joke about him Picture Quote #1

I don’t really consider myself to be a comedian. I mean, it’s not like I’m sitting around writing jokes or anything. I just like dressing up and pretending to be other people Picture Quote #1

I certainly got the jokes within the joke, dressing up in a wet suit, sitting in a Twingo, scaling a rubber mountain, dressing up and stealing a diamond, of course. If not now, when? Picture Quote #1
