More From Jerry Lewis

I read reviews of critics i respect and feel i can learn something from. right now there are a lot of bottom-feeder critics who just have access to a computer and don't necessarily have an academic or cinema background that i can detect, so i tend to ignore that and stay with the same top-tier critics that i've come to respect. i like reading a good review - it doesn't have to be favorable, but a well-thought-out one - because i very much appreciate the relationship of directors and critics.

I'm so tired of the left trying to divide us by race. one of the things i said today in my speech, we're not indian-americans, african-americans, irish-americans, rich americans, poor americans. we're all americans.

People think i'm against critics because they are negative to my work. that's not what bothers me. what bothers me is they didn't see the work. i have seen critics print stuff about stuff i cut out of the film before we ran it. so don't tell me about critics.
Cutting Thinking People
There is no room in this country for hyphenated americanism. when i refer to hyphenated americans, i do not refer to naturalized americans. some of the very best americans i have ever known were naturalized americans, americans born abroad. but a hyphenated american is not an american at all.

My mother used to say when we were children, 'when a boy gets a stick in his hand, his brains run out the other end of it.' power is a stick in the hand, and i have never heard of anybody who wielded a very big stick of power whose brains did not run out the other end. as a nation, our brains are running out the other end of our power right now.
Mother Running Children
When critics ask you if you feel vindicated by other critics - i didn't like critics then, and i don't like them now. there you go. i've always been outside the mainstream, and it stayed that way.
