More quotes by Garry Marshall
For Joey Bishop, always was kind of the lost soul, so I did a traffic joke.
Garry Marshall
I made nepotism an art form, so I get to work with a lot of relatives and they're part of it.
Garry Marshall
You go to a theater now and you literally see parents watching the movie and they suddenly cover their kid's ears. I figured I'd make one movie where they didn't have to do this.

There's no better satisfaction than writing. I feel that writing is the best and everything else comes with it
Garry Marshall
I like to get up in the morning and see people.
Garry Marshall
In the middle of Beaches there's a scene from the Laverne & Shirley TV show so they see some history of my work in each film.

I directed fourteen movies. Every movie had Hector Elizondo. He didn't like Beaches. I don't know, it was originally not a happy movie at all, it was much sadder than that. And they brought me in to kind of make it a little more 'warm', I guess you might call it. The original ending was a whole messy thing.

I wasn't really that good at being a musician. And then I tried being a standup. I was an actor. I was a photographer. I tried everything. Nothing was particularly working for me, but then, as a musician, I wrote jokes for comics. And they started to buy my jokes, and that's where I thought maybe that might work.
Garry Marshall
He convinced me - Fred Freeman - to go to Hollywood and we went to Hollywood to write sitcoms. Joey Bishop actually paid my way to Hollywood.
Garry Marshall
I started as a journalist actually. I graduated from Northwestern Medill School of Journalism and with my degree discovered, once out in the real world, I wasn't very good at it.
Garry Marshall
I really wasn't too interested in writing Father Knows Best and Ozzie And Harriet. I thought they were pleasant enough, but it wasn't really what I wanted to do.
Garry Marshall
Women are pretty good. Women usually fight about some stupid guy and then when they figure out it's just a stupid guy they make up and move on.
Garry Marshall
I always remember writing a page of jokes for a comedian and handing it to him backstage at a club and he read it and then took his cigarette lighter and lit the page on...
Garry Marshall
I'm too old to be forced.
Garry Marshall
Now women are rising to great positions and they run most of the studios now.
