I would love to be in Kansas.
Paul Reubens
I take having a kids' show real seriously. I think it's an enormous responsibility.
Paul Reubens
Part of what I do comes from the fact that I don't know any jokes to tell. And when I do they're really flat and don't work.
Paul Reubens
I usually go in ahead of time, like at a rehearsal, or a meeting, and tell them, It may appear that I'm going to go haywire, but I'm not. I always map out what I'm going to do. Still, a lot of it is improvised.
Paul Reubens
The moment that I realized my name was going to be said in the same sentence as children and sex, that's really intense. That's something I knew from that very moment, whatever happens past that point, something's out there in the air that is really bad.
Paul Reubens
You'd get on the plane and every single person is somebody really, really famous. It just killed me. On one flight you'd have Linda Gray, O.J. Simpson, Robert De Niro, Carol Burnett, Loni Anderson and Burt Reynolds... and Francis Ford Coppola.
Paul Reubens
I'm going to try to do as many styles as I can. A salsa number, rock and roll, country.... I've talked to a million people about it. Obviously, I'd love Prince to do it. I'm sure he'll produce the whole album for me.
Paul Reubens
I'd love to direct, and I think I'd be a great director, but... I've been approved by the studio to direct, which I think is a cool jump of faith for them. Or proof that they're really stupid. But I don't think so.
Paul Reubens
It's the most natural progression for me to becoming a singing sensation next. And so many people have offered to be on it. Eddie Van Halen... and Prince, Madonna and Cyndi Lauper will probably be a backup trio.
Paul Reubens
I just feel in a lot of ways black people are so much looser and cooler. Just as a culture, it's so much more real.
Paul Reubens
We're in a situation now where fewer and fewer small films get made. People want these big giant tentpole sort of things, and I don't know, it's getting harder and harder to make a small movie.
Paul Reubens
I feel the only way I'm going to be successful in moving on is if I keep a separation.
Paul Reubens
I've been super lucky in that I've either been in or helped create situations where I do what I want. I'm super lucky. I get to do what I want and create art and make people laugh, and it's really fun.
Paul Reubens
The public may think I'm weird. They may think I'm crazy or anything that anyone wants to think about me. That's all fine. As long as one of the things you're not thinking about me is that I'm a pedophile. Because that's not true.
Paul Reubens
I know you are, but what am I?

It's a lot easier to say you're a comic than a performance artist.

I was looking for a last name that was a first name. Growing up, I knew a kid who was the most obnoxious kid I ever knew, and his last name was Herman.
Paul Reubens
The first time I met Prince he invented me to his birthday party in Minneapolis. It was a costume party and I came as a beatnik - a beret and a charcoal goatee. He was dressed like an executioner. I talked to him for awhile and he didn't know who I was, and when I told him he was real surprised.
Paul Reubens
There were just things in Disney movies that probably were too scary for kids.
Paul Reubens
I have a deal with a company that's going to do cards without the gum. I don't like sugarless gum, and I don't think it's much better for you.
