Seth MacFarlane
You break the story first, and then you go into the specifics.
Seth MacFarlane
The only reason we die, is because we accept death as an inevitability.
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.
Seth MacFarlane
I had - I was pretty hell bent on getting into the cartoon business specifically as an artist from the get-go.
Seth MacFarlane
The Simpsons are ugly-looking, and they should be. That's what works. That's one of the things that's funny.

I always thought it would be funny to have the Parents Television Council write an episode of 'Family Guy' and give them full creative control. Then see how good the episode is. That's something we've actually discussed in the writers' room. We haven't proposed it yet, but if somebody from the PTC reads this, it might be worth discussing.

Nobody sets out to offend or shock for the sake of shocking. You set out to get laughs.
Seth MacFarlane
If something is shocking without being funny it's hard to justify.
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
The trend today is vampires, zombies, angels, all the stuff that puts me right to sleep. It's too bad because it's so much less interesting than the diversity of stories you can tell with science.
Seth MacFarlane
Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.
Seth MacFarlane
I do not believe in God. I'm an atheist. I consider myself a critical thinker, and it fascinates me that in the 21st century most people still believe in, as George Carlin puts it, 'the invisible man living in the sky'
Seth MacFarlane
Character I want to be: Blunt Talk's.
Seth MacFarlane
The good thing about Broadway is that you don't have to worry about an airdate. It gets done when it gets done.
Seth MacFarlane
I cannot tell good art from bad art. I have no eye for it.
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
There have to be people who are vocal about the advancement of knowledge over faith.
