More quotes by Seth MacFarlane
I'm wide open to getting married, but actors are not easy people to date. You end up sharing that person with this other mistress that is their career. I very much like the traditional courtship method of making a date. That's what they do in normal places, but Hollywood's not normal.

I can't believe I am hosting the Oscars. It's an honor everyone else said no.
Seth MacFarlane
I'm from Connecticut, and we don't have any dialects. Well, I don't think we have any dialects, and yeah, it's very complex. That Rhode Island/Massachusetts New England region is arguably the hardest dialect to nail.

Sarah Palin is very pro-life of course, unless the life is that of an Iraqi civilian or a wolf running frantically from a roaring helicopter while being strafed with ribbons of automatic weapons fire.
Seth MacFarlane
I wrote on a show called Johnny Bravo when I was at Hanna-Barbera and he guest-starred as himself.
Seth MacFarlane
The worst thing to happen at the Oscars would be if nothing happened. You want something unscripted, something to riff on, something kinda out there.

There are people on staff who have made that point, that the upside to a second Bush term is that it makes 'American Dad' work better. To me, the price is too high. I would gladly give up the comedy to have a President Kerry. But you work with what you have.
Seth MacFarlane
Believe it or not, I have about the same success rate as anyone else. Sometimes you hit, sometimes you miss.
Seth MacFarlane
'American Dad' is, by its nature, much more political.
Seth MacFarlane
The success of The Simpsons really opened doors. It showed that if you were working in animation you didn't necessarily have to be working in kids' television.
Seth MacFarlane
When you are in a room and your job is to write jokes 10 hours a day, your mind starts going to strange places.
Seth MacFarlane
I tend to lean more towards the Westerns of the 40s and 50s as opposed to the 60s and 70s. They get a little too drab for me when you get into the Spaghetti Western era. I love the John Ford movies. I love the music. I love the scope.
Seth MacFarlane
Some of those more out-there jokes were written in the wee hours of the morning. Somehow, they remained funny the next day.
Seth MacFarlane
What makes me happy is just keeping my brain challenged and stimulated and on its toes.
Seth MacFarlane
I cannot tell good art from bad art. I have no eye for it.
Seth MacFarlane
I love the English. My God, they brought us 'Benny Hill,' 'Monty Python,' 'The Office,' Neville Chamberlain.
Seth MacFarlane
When 'Family Guy' started, we wanted to make it more like a sitcom. And there was very little music.
Seth MacFarlane
I'm one of the few people in Hollywood who actually had a good childhood.
Seth MacFarlane
My dad always played Anne Murray in the car on the way to the dump when I was a kid.
