My mother was supportive without knowing it. Deep down she wanted all the right things, she just didn't see the world like I did, and she's not supposed to.

I just like making people laugh, and buried in that I like to bring up topics and start discussions.

Bullfights are hugely popular because you can sit comfortably with a hot dog and possibly watch a man die. It wont be me, but I can sit comfortably and watch it.

Steven Spielberg seems to have wanted to be a director from 13. He put his dog in a certain position and made him eat at four o'clock. He liked to direct it. But, to me, directing is tedious. Especially if you're acting in it. And I'm inherently lazy.

I cast unusual people in my movies.

How many people didn't get a part who would have been better than the person who got the part? Thousands.

Even though my father was a radio comedian, it wasn't cool to say, at a young age, 'I want to be a comedian.'

What's interesting about books that take place in the future, even twenty years in the future, is that many of them are black or white: It's either a utopia or it's misery. The real truth is that there's going to be both things in any future, just like there is now.

When I die, if the word 'thong' appears in the first or second sentence of my obituary, I've screwed up.

Donald Trump announces this morning that he will run for president. His hair will announce on Friday.

Movies are an expensive business.

Someone asked me what do you think of Donald Trump? And I said, I would rather vote for Hillary Clinton in jail. If she gets convicted, I'll vote for her for president.

'Drive' came to me because the casting director knew my manager and called and said, 'You've always talked to me about Albert wanting to play the heavy. I think he should read this.' My ears just perked up.

The biggest waste of brainpower is to want to change something that's not changeable.

I've always been the king of silence. I've always been a minimalist comedian. I've taken my influence from Jack Benny, who was the king of that I've always done 'less is more.'
