The Nobel is a ticket to one's own funeral. No one has ever done anything after he got it.
If it tastes really good, and it's funky, it's funkalicous. If the guy making it is funky, he's funkintacious.
My father was always a straight-up funny guy. He was silly. He was my inspiration.
Drew's a funny guy. Because anything he gets into, he gets in 100%. Even when we were doing 'The Drew Carey Show,' he got into bowling, and suddenly he's phoning up pros for tips and carrying around 3 balls. It's just how he does it.
My favorite-ever version of 'King Lear' is the 1971 film by Peter Brooks. He has this enormous fur thing, and it adds enormous gravitas.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez was a newspaperman originally in Colombia. He talked about - and I agree - how everybody has a public life, a private life, and a secret life.

I saw John Garfield smoke. He was my idol, so I smoked. I even smoked like him.
I started Michael years ago. I saw him in Gary, Indiana, and we'd have him on the talent shows. He kind of emulated me, and did the best he could.
Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He's such a great actor, he's off the hook. I love him.

When I negotiated the ceasefire in Gaza with President Morsi, he was, you know, very involved.
He lives with his creativity in high gear.
In picking Gen. Jim Mattis for Defense secretary, President-elect Donald Trump has said that he found his 'Gen. George Patton.' Yet that label may not really capture what makes Mattis a distinctive choice.
Gene Kelly was one of the greatest dancers of all time and a taskmaster. He sought from you the absolute best - and he got it.
Gene Kelly was hard on me, but I think he had to be.
Gene Kelly was a little tough, and he used to yell at me on the set.
Remember, the first presidential candidate to reject public financing for both the primary and general election was... Barack Obama, in 2008. He did it, in spite of a flat pledge to the contrary, because his campaign saw that it could vastly outspend John McCain.
If a writer doesn't generate hostility, he is dead.
There was a war crimes trial because an American prisoner had been shot trying to escape. He had obviously been recaptured and shot, and that violated the Geneva Convention.
