More quotes by Denis Leary
My kids watch everything downloaded they have no idea what the numbers or the names of the channels mean, except FX makes the show that I see on my computer. So it's harder to get a show on the air, but at the same time, there are a lot of terrific shows.

What's politically correct a lot of times is not funny.

I obviously identify with the anti-authority figure. I've pretty much always had problems with authority, ever since I was a kid.

I'm praying for 'Ice Age' 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Because I really think we can run those characters into the '60s, and I'm talking the 1960s, you know? The Civil Rights Movement. That's what I'm praying for, because then I wouldn't have to do anything else.

I obviously identify with the anti-authority figure. I've pretty much always had problems with authority, ever since I was a kid. But, yeah, it's not identifying, I think it's more a part of my natural DNA that I question anybody who has a plan. Everybody's got to have an angle that's the way I grew up.

For us as writers, it's really important to have songs we believe in - even before sometimes we shoot a scene. If we have a song that's so perfectly designed for a scene on 'Rescue Me,' we'll play it on loud speakers during the shooting. It helps the cameraman and it helps the director, and it helps the actors know what the feel is.

If you had no enemies, you had no fun.
Denis Leary
I will not bond. I will not share. I refuse to nurture.
Denis Leary
There's not going to be a 'Rescue Me' movie. Not a chance.
Denis Leary
It's human nature for people to expect people to be what they see on the screen.
Denis Leary
I'm sick and tired of our generation being called the TV generation. What do you expect? We watched Lee Harvey Oswald get his brains blown out all over. How could we change the channel after that?
Denis Leary
Loud, stupid and overeating will suffice as long as we also have the funny, the fierce and the intellectual

Nobody can make more fun of me than I already make of myself.

The only difference between kids and jungle animals is pants. Kids wear them. Jungle animals don't.

There we were in the middle of a sexual revolution wearing clothes that guaranteed we wouldn't get laid.

When I go to Batman movies, I always think, 'Man, I would like to be a bad guy in a Batman movie.' especially as they got darker when they go to the Christian Bale era.

I love Santa Monica and Venice because I like the beach. I have a lot of friends in that area.
