The chief problem about death, incidentally, is the fear that there may be no afterlife - a depressing thought, particularly for those who bothered to shave. Also, there is the fear that there is an afterlife but no one will know where it's being held. On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done as easily laying down.

I'm not anti-social. I'm just not social.
Woody Allen

I always thought that as long as man is mortal, he will never be relaxed.
Woody Allen

Since I was a kid, I could make up stories, I could make up funny jokes and I could always do it. When I'm walking down the street or having dinner, ideas will hit me, and I write them down on matchbooks or napkins and throw them in the draw.

I was raised in the Jewish tradition, taught never to marry a Gentile woman, shave on a Saturday night and, most especially, never to shave a Gentile woman on a Saturday night.

If you don't have fun doing the film, then the results of the film will never give you any fun.

Have you ever noticed that good people sleep better, but bad people seem to have more fun when they're awake?

I sued American Apparel because they calculatingly took my name, my likeness and image and used them publicly to promote their business.

People ask me whether I think that one day I might wake up one morning and run dry, but I've had the opposite feeling - that I would die before I had time to write all the ideas in my drawer.
