I take anything other than 'you big pig!' as a compliment.
Albert Brooks

When I was younger, I wasn't concentrating on good days. I was managing a career and trying to have a good year. It would always 'lead' to something, which never leads to anything except death, where everything leads to. And then as I got older, and then I had my kids and everything, I began to appreciate a great Wednesday.

Movies are an expensive business.

Twitter, to me, works if you're funny. Twitter doesn't work as a promotional tool unless you do it very, very, very occasionally.
Albert Brooks
Image
I've been to many funerals of funny people, and they're some of the funniest days you'll ever have, because the emotions run high.

When I went to acting school, the kids that got the best grades were the kids that could cry on cue. But it didn't really translate into careers for any of them, because the external is the easy part.

Even though my father was a radio comedian, it wasn't cool to say, at a young age, 'I want to be a comedian.'
Albert Brooks
Image
I don't want to be the one to break it to you, but the future ain't that funny.
Albert Brooks
Image
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.

Twitter is the Devil's playground.
Albert Brooks
Image
I never wanted to be a director.
Albert Brooks
Image
I've never been disappointed, because I've never given somebody I liked that much power.
Albert Brooks
Image
You can equate acting to a tennis game: When you're playing one of the best, you get better.
Albert Brooks
Image
Art and resistance are great together. That's what art's made for. Look at Vincent van Gogh: He didn't cut off his ear because he was selling well.
Albert Brooks
Image
The biggest waste of brainpower is to want to change something that's not changeable.
Albert Brooks
Image
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.'

If you want to be a writer, just write. There's no magic to it.
