I've probably done the odd thing. I've probably done more than I would have done and some things you don't say no to. You don't say no to working with The Simpsons... the greatest comedy show on television. You mustn't. Even though going to my bad judgment, I remember saying that all I can do is make this show slightly worse.

I don't do anything for the money.

I see myself much more as a writer/director or at least an aspiring writer/director - not necessarily in film.

I can't find someone funny whom I don't like. Hitler told great jokes. I didn't find it funny at all.

For any of you who don't know, the Golden Globes are just like the Oscars, but without all that esteem. The Golden Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton. A bit louder, a bit trashier, a bit drunker, and more easily bought.

When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It's only painful and difficult for others. The same applies when you are stupid.

I want to get all the nations of the world together, it doesn't matter what colour or creed, and I want to sit them down and say: Guys, The Office is still available on DVD.

I went to university with no money. I can't understand a society that wouldn't give a poor person the same opportunity as a rich person.
