“The great comedians imitate children. That's their ability.”
Hal Roach

We got one letter from a man who thought that Hauk's comedy was "visionary and interesting”. The other eleven hundred calls say that the man can't do comedy to save his dick!… That's a direct quote, sir.
Forest Whitaker - Edward Garlick

“Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die.”
Mel Brooks

“I'm scared of comedy. I thinks it demands stage experience and I've never been before the footlights. I wish I had. Do you know, I have a curious recurrent dream that I am in a stage play and most embarrassed - like those dreams when one is caught in extreme negligee in some public place.”
Norma Shearer

“Romantic comedies tend to be, for me, an oxymoron.”
Christian Bale
