More quotes by Judd Apatow
I'm always begging people like James Brooks and Cameron Crowe to come to screenings, to see what they make of it, and they're always ridiculously helpful. They also keep me brave enough to commit to what I'm trying to do. They can be great cheerleaders for risk-taking.
Judd Apatow
I always see other people as predecessors and admire them.
Judd Apatow
I used to tour a little bit with Jim Carrey and help him out on his first Showtime special.
Judd Apatow
I don't want to be ordinary. I'm willing to do the work. I'm willing to suffer the indignities of comedy because I want to be great. I don't want to just be good. I want to be great.
Judd Apatow
Every joke is an experiment. When you sit, alone, and write a script, or just a joke, you really have no idea if it will succeed.
Judd Apatow
I literally cannot remember one joke.
Judd Apatow
You know, I'm a big comedy fan.
Judd Apatow
So many people are in comedy because of difficult mothers or broken homes.
Judd Apatow
Parents don't realize that when they teach you about the Holocaust too early, it ruins you for life.
Judd Apatow
I often say that ... I'm just involved in comedy, so I can be around it.
Judd Apatow
Penn [Jillette] and Teller and I get along very well. We can call each other and say, I'm working on this classic effect. Please, I'd like to do it for a while. We'll all respect it. There are people we don't get along with, but mostly there is a respect amongst the group.
Judd Apatow
It was always the most fun thing in the world to think of a joke area and talk about it with someone like Jim Carrey, and then he would get on stage fearlessly and tear the house down. That's something I always enjoyed. It also allowed me to not be terrified.
Judd Apatow
Sometimes you need to get away for a few weeks just to figure out who you are again.
Judd Apatow
You should look up some of the reviews. The New York Times review is so over-the-top funny. It's hysterical. You should dig it out.
Judd Apatow
I think a lot of studios today are run by women, and we are entering a time when a lot of women have evolved in Second City and Upright Citizens Brigade and wanted to become writers and comedians.
Judd Apatow
I think we all have a love/hate relationship with the media.
Judd Apatow
I don't think it matters what the frequency is of me writing or directing a movie. It doesn't really matter to anybody else. I'm just trying to put good things out there.
Judd Apatow
Eventually, the nerds and the geeks will have their day.
Judd Apatow
If you work on network TV, they want to pick your casts, dictate your story and how your show works. It just becomes creativity by committee, which is never good.
Judd Apatow
If everyone is mature, there is no comedy.
