I don't know how to be like a bill murray or a will ferrell, these guys who know how to make a line funny just by, i don't know, some extra-sense perception. i only know character and emotion and real acting; that's all i know how to do.

Clothing sizes are weird, they go: small, medium, large and then extra large, extra extra large, extra extra extra large. something happened at large, they just gave up. they were like, 'i'm not doing any more adjectives; you just keep putting extras on there.' we could do better than that: small, medium, large, whoa, easy, slow down, stop it, interesting, american.

My sheets had never been so clean as they had in the past few months. i hardly got them on again before something else happened and i was feverishly ripping them off and stuffing them in the wash with double amounts of soap and all the "extra" buttons pushed: extra wash, extra rinse, extra water, extra spin, extra protection against things that go bump in the night.

I'm not offended. lenny bruce taught me that everything's funny. you can make everything funny. i don't think that assassinations are funny, i don't think you can make fun of isis, but almost everything is funny. and if we can't laugh at ourselves, who can we laugh at? so i don't mind ethnic humor. i like ethnic humor. i like dialect jokes. laughter is a very subjective thing. if it's funny to you it's funny. and a lot of things are funny to me.

Perception without the word, which is without thought, is one of the strangest phenomena. then the perception is much more acute, not only with the brain, but also with all the senses. such perception is not the fragmentary perception of the intellect nor the affair of the emotions. it can be called a total perception, and it is part of meditation.

When i've written for bill murray - i've written six films for him - people would read it and say, "oh, that's so perfectly bill." he'd read it and say, "are you kidding? i can't say these words." so it's all about perception.
People Perception Bills
The problem is that we live in an uptight country. why don't we just laugh at ourselves? we are funny. gays are funny. straights are funny. women are funny. men are funny. we are all funny, and we all do funny things. let's laugh about it.

Howbeit your faith seeth but the black side of providence, yet it hath a better side, and god shall let you see it. ... “for we know that all things work together for good to them that love god,” ergo, shipwreck, losses, &c., work together for the good of them that love god: hence i infer, that losses, disappointments, ill tongues, loss of friends, houses, or country, are god's workmen, set on work to work out good to you, out of everything that befalleth you.
Country Disappointment Loss
I suppose the pleasure of the country life lies really in the eternally renewed evidences of the determination to live. that is a truism when said, but anything but a truism when daily observed. nothing shows up the difference between the thing said or read, so much as the daily experience of it.
Life Country Determination
The tone and tendency of liberalism...is to attack the institutions of the country under the name of reform and to make war on the manners and customs of the people under the pretext of progress.

We stand today at the threshold of a great event both in the life of the united nations and in the life of mankind. this declaration may well become the international magna carta for all men everywhere. we hope its proclamation by the general assembly will be an event comparable to the proclamation in 1789 [of the french declaration of the rights of man], the adoption of the bill of rights by the people of the u.s., and the adoption of comparable declarations at different times in other countries.
