Vicodin, I got addicted to that little pill. The reason I don't talk about it too much in the press is because it isn't funny, and I love to be funny in interviews. If you joke about that period in your life, it doesn't seem right. ↗

You can't build a plot out of jokes. You need tragic relief. And you need to let people know that when a lot of frightened people are running around with edged weaponry, there are deaths. Stupid deaths, usually. I'm not writing 'The A-Team' - if there's a fight going on, people will get hurt. Not letting this happen would be a betrayal. ↗

It's a joke, in much the same way that the Earth is destroyed almost at the start of Douglas Adams's 'The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.' ↗

The English had hit upon a splendid joke. They intended to catch me or to bring me down. ↗

You can trust a Neil Simon script. Every dot. Every dash; that pause means something. He takes all the jokes out, practically. ↗

I think when you dissect a joke too much, you have ruined whatever there is in comedy. ↗

It was a JOB; the video show was a JOB; you don't tell the Aristocrats joke at 8 o'clock at night on network tv, it would be funny though. But those guys know I like dirty stuff, I like clean stuff too. ↗

A sense of humor is the ability to understand a joke - and that the joke is oneself. ↗
