More quotes by 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
Nobody sets out to offend or shock for the sake of shocking. You set out to get laughs.
Seth MacFarlane
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
If I were to do a musical, I think I would rather make a film musical.
Seth MacFarlane
Fox is notorious for having a very thick skin about taking shots at themselves.
Seth MacFarlane
The quest for Tommy Lee Jones' laugh begins now.
Seth MacFarlane
Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.
Seth MacFarlane
I have a car that I like - an Aston Martin - for Sunday drives in the country.
Seth MacFarlane
'American Dad' is, by its nature, much more political.
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
You gotta keep the funny intact.
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
The way Disney characters move, they're very kind of slow and fluid and flowing one pose kind of eases into the next. If you look at a show like 'The Simpsons' and subsequently a show like 'Family Guy' - the characters will jerk from pose to pose a lot, a bit more snappy. Which sort of goes along with the writing tone of the show.
Seth MacFarlane
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
Evolution doesn't care whether you believe in it or not, no more than gravity does. I want to rekindle excitement over what we've achieved as a species with the space program. We can't afford to regress back to the days of superstition.
Seth MacFarlane
I distrust all television doctors.
Seth MacFarlane
Character I want to be: Blunt Talk's.
Seth MacFarlane
I love the English. My God, they brought us 'Benny Hill,' 'Monty Python,' 'The Office,' Neville Chamberlain.
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
I cannot tell good art from bad art. I have no eye for it.
