Don't mess with me, man, I'm a lawyer!
Robin Williams

For me, comedy starts as a spew, a kind of explosion, and then you sculpt it from there, if at all. It comes out of a deeper, darker side. Maybe it comes from anger, because I'm outraged by cruel absurdities, the hypocrisy that exists everywhere, even within yourself, where it's hardest to see.
Robin Williams
If women ran the world there would be no wars. However every 28 days there would be some very intense negotiations.
Robin Williams
Sometimes with a comedy it's just having the instinct of how real you play it and what level you want it.
