Anxiety and hostility seem to be a great part of good and bad humor. Examining humor too closely does seem to destroy it.

When will people learn? Democracy doesn't work! (Homer Simpson)
Matt Groening
A woman is like beer. They look good, they smell good, and you'd step over your own mother just to get one!
Matt Groening
How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?
Matt Groening
Nihilism in American comedy came along way before 'The Simpsons.' There was a fairly nihilistic point of view to 'Saturday Night Live,' for instance, back in the beginning, and a lot of really dark comedy had a really anti-sentimental take on life.
Matt Groening
I loved literary science fiction. In fact, as a kid, when I was reading science fiction, I thought 'I can't wait for the future when the special effects are good' to represent what was in these books by Arthur C. Clarke, Alfred Bester, Philip K. Dick, J.G. Ballard, Jack Vance.

Masturbation is nothing to be ashamed of. It's nothing to be particularly proud of, either.

I promise I'll do anything for you, especialy if it's easy. Homer Simpson

Did you hear something? No. Did I hear something? ...I don't know.

Think beer drink beer.
Matt Groening
I have to say that The Simpsons comes from a huge number of great writers headed by Al Jean, the show-runner, and the work that they do is really fantastic. It's a blast just to sit around with them in the writers' room and listen to all the filthy jokes that will never get on the air.
Matt Groening
Keep your expectations tiny you'll go through life not so whiney.
Matt Groening
I think human beings probably resonate with audiences more than bunnies, but who knows?
Matt Groening
The world ends when I die. And as far as I'm concerned, the rest of the universe might as well call it a day too.
Matt Groening
When I look at the smiles on all the children's faces...I just know they're about to jab me with something.
Matt Groening
If something is too hard to do, then it's not worth doing. You just stick that guitar in the closet next to your shortwave radio, your karate outfit and your unicycle and we'll go inside and watch TV.
Matt Groening
A lot of American shows don't last for as long as 12 episodes. They get cut after one. But certainly one of the great things about The Office in particular was that there was a beginning, a middle and an end.
Matt Groening
Me fail English? That's unpossible.

Donuts. Is there anything they can't do?
