More quotes by Judd Apatow
Every time I perform in front of people, no matter how well it goes, the next day, I feel humiliated.
Judd Apatow
One of my fears is that I'm suddenly not going to be funny, but still think I am. That's like my nightmare that I can wake up in a cold sweat from.
Judd Apatow
I love when people work together who know each other very well. Some of my favourite movies are people who are close friends or families.
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
Back then, you seemed like a crazy person when you were trying to push the boundaries of network TV. People looked at you, and they were offended by the fact that you didn't follow the generic rules of what was expected on network TV.
Judd Apatow
A lot of bands that are great disappear a little bit faster than they used to. They don't get as much support for the long haul. You have to be pretty tough to hang in there.
Judd Apatow
I always feel like I'm very far from my potential.
Judd Apatow
It's funny, now there are so many bands that I can never remember any of their names. Maybe it's because I'm old.
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 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
If everyone is mature, there is no comedy.
Judd Apatow
I started a radio show where I interviewed comics. And I interviewed Leno and Seinfeld and John Candy and Father Guido Sarducci and Garry Shandling, all when I was 16. And they kind of told me what to do.
Judd Apatow
I like when people are very passionate about what they want to write about. Even if it's silly, you can be very passionate about it.
Judd Apatow
When I was very young, I started to make friends with much, much older people. So when I was twenty, my friends were fifty, and I never really went through forty because I would watch them die and I would feel younger. So you make friends with older people and you will always feel young no matter what.
Judd Apatow
Deer are like dogs. Except for Bambi, they're pretty personality-less.
Judd Apatow
I really think more about being honest and truthful about feelings and how people behave for the movies that I direct, but I also love movies like Zohan and Anchorman, just balls to the wall, how much can you make people laugh in one 90 minute period.
Judd Apatow
I'm always talking to people. It's not that complicated. I just find somebody and say, Do you have any ideas. If they do, we just start thinking things around.
Judd Apatow
I wrote for Roseanne. I wrote her stand-up act with her. I wrote with Tom Arnold. There was a period when I was working with them pretty steadily. But I would take brief gigs here and there.
Judd Apatow
A lot of the turning points happen in high school and in college, and it defines a lot of how you see the world and how you decide to defend yourself from the world. Some people - their defense mechanism is, I'm really smart or I'm sexy or I'm the leader. And other people - they hide or they make jokes.
Judd Apatow
Television is much more difficult because at every moment, the network can force you to change things based on their belief about what would make it popular. You’re in a constant debate with a gun to your head, and the gun is cancellation. So it’s hard to win the arguments.
