Some people are probably saner. They're good performers, and they go about their day. I just get obsessive about it.

More quotes by Judd Apatow
I feel like it's a golden age for television.
Judd Apatow
There's something so scary about trying out new material and being completely comfortable jumping into the abyss with a comedic idea.
Judd Apatow
I always feel like I'm very far from my potential.
Judd Apatow
I think a lot of Hollywood is in retreat right now trying to figure out how to make money and make the safest bets.
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 anything is leaking, I try to plug the hole.
Judd Apatow
It would be so irresponsible not to speak up. I don't know what I would do in my home and in my life if I didn't rant a little bit and as thoughtfully as I can with some humor.
Judd Apatow
I used to bug all of the comedians for interviews, and when people want to talk to me, sometimes I'm very receptive and sometimes I say no. Sometimes if I say no, I think, If they're smart, they'll figure out how to not accept this no.
Judd Apatow
I don't really get attached to anything. I'm pretty brutal about cutting stuff. With each successful movie, I've discovered anything that's not connected to the immediate story is going to be cut out of it.
Judd Apatow
There are people that entertainment is something they do at the end of a long hard day at work, and they want to be entertained and have it over quickly. They're like, Entertain me fast!
Judd Apatow
When I notice that all the beats sound exactly the same, it starts to wear on me.
Judd Apatow
Nobody's going to like my next movie because they liked Trainwreck [2015]. It has to work on its own, and that keeps it really scary.
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
I think we all have a love/hate relationship with the media.
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
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 just try to be true to myself and write about things I'm passionate about. I think what most people don't like about movies is they can tell that most movies are a product, and they don't mean that much to the people who make them.
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
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 feel like Superbad and Freaks And Geeks are somewhat timeless. That's always gratifying, when you feel like 30 years in the future, people will still get it, and it won't seem creaky. It won't come across like The Incredible Mr. Limpet.
