- I actually feel like, for a lot of my career, I wasn't able to show my comedic range. I did a lot of dramas and dramedies. I was on 'E.R.' That's not generally thought of as a funny show.
- Busy Philipps on Funny
- I actually find novels that are determined to be funny at every turn quite oppressive.
- Ian Mcewan on Funny
- I actually think of being funny as an odd turn of mind, like a mild disability, some weird way of looking at the world that you can't get rid of.
- Calvin Trillin on Funny
- I actually was class clown, but I don't know how that happened because I've never been considered an outwardly funny person-as the people in this room will attest.
- Janeane Garofalo on Funny
- I actually was class clown, but I don't know how that happened because I've never been considered an outwardly funny person.
- Janeane Garofalo on Funny
- I also think if you're an actor and you can improvise, when you go on an audition and you can improvise you're just a genius. If you can, you know, take a Tide commercial and you can just say one funny line that's not in the commercial they think you're a genius.
- Amy Poehler on Funny
- I always approach comedy roles pretending they aren't funny.
- Brendan Fraser on Funny
- I always find it kind of embarrassing, kind of funny, and kind of exciting. In New York I'm recognized a lot, although nobody says anything. You know, they stare at you just a second too long. But in Paris it's not as commonplace to be recognized.
- Marc Jacobs on Funny
- I always just wanted to be funny. I never really planned to be scary.
- R. L. Stine on Funny
- I always like to watch comics and it's interesting that you can tell if someone's funny in 10 seconds.
- Christopher Walken on Funny
- I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific.
- Lily Tomlin on Funny
- I am accusing him of stealing my best material, he was a very funny man.
- Frank Carson on Funny
- I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat.
- Will Rogers on Funny
- I am not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
- Woody Allen on Funny
- I am odd-looking. I sometimes think I look like a funny Muppet.
- Angelina Jolie on Funny
- I appreciate humor so much, but I'm actually not a funny girl.
- Emmanuelle Chriqui on Funny
- I auditioned for a solo in church and got it. I was about seven and I sang a song called, 'Jesus, I Heard You Had a Big House' and I remember people standing up at the end and me thinking, 'Oh, I think I'm going to like this.' That's how it all began. Sounds funny to say you got your start in church, but I did.
- Kristin Chenoweth on Funny
- I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade... And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party.
- I believe, in a funny way, the job of the novelist is to be out there on the fringes and speaking for an experience that has not really been spoken for.
- Donna Tartt on Funny
- I bought some batteries, but they weren't included.
- Steven Wright on Funny
- I buy expensive suits. They just look cheap on me.
- Warren Buffett on Funny
- I can always get better. A lot of my ex-girlfriends don't think I'm funny.
- I can do comedy, so people want me to do that, but the other side of comedy is depression. Deep, deep depression is the flip side of comedy. Casting agents don't realize it but in order to be funny you have to have that other side.
- Parker Posey on Funny
- I can never tell when something is funny. I just have to do it onstage and find out.
- Margaret Cho on Funny
- I can speak Esperanto like a native.
- Spike Milligan on Funny
- I can't not find humor in elements of most parts of life, but at the same time nothing ever seems perpetually funny to me.
- Greg Kinnear on Funny
- I can't watch other people doing comedy. As soon as somebody starts being funny I have to turn off because it upsets me. I get comedy indigestion. I just hate anybody else being funny. That's my job.
- Jenny Eclair on Funny
- I cannot sing, dance or act what else would I be but a talk show host.
- David Letterman on Funny
- I come more to Scotland than I ever used to, so I feel more connected to it, more part of the zeitgeist. You know when you realize you have a choice and I'm choosing my homeland. It's funny: when you get older these things creep up to you.
- Alan Cumming on Funny
- I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose.
- Arthur Conan Doyle on Funny
- I cook with wine, sometimes I even add it to the food.
- W. C. Fields on Funny
- I could party in a cardboard box with people who are funny and don't care. For me, it's really about who I surround myself with, so I just try to always be with hilarious people.
- I did not have three thousand pairs of shoes, I had one thousand and sixty.
- Imelda Marcos on Funny
- I didn't grow up identifying with beauty. I grew up thinking I could be smart and funny - those are the things I got feedback on.
- Lauren Graham on Funny
- I didn't plan to be the rude middle-class comedian. You write a certain type of joke that you find funny, and mine happen to be often rude. Yes, it's juvenile, but that's me.
- Jimmy Carr on Funny
- I distrust camels, and anyone else who can go a week without a drink.
- Joe E. Lewis on Funny

- Michelle Pfeiffer on Funny
- I don't believe in the after life, although I am bringing a change of underwear.
- Woody Allen on Funny
- I don't believe that anybody has come to a conclusion on why something is funny. It's funny because it's ridiculous and it's ridiculous for different reasons at different times.
- Jackie Mason on Funny
- I don't care what the haters and naysayers say. If they make jokes about me, I'll laugh because they'll probably be funny.
- Paula Deen on Funny
- I don't deserve this award, but I have arthritis and I don't deserve that either.
- Jack Benny on Funny
- I don't dismiss the music that I was involved with, I don't think it was a joke, I don't think it was funny or a phase, I don't think it was just something I was doing back then, to me it was who I am. It connects all the way through. I don't distance myself from any of it.
- Ian MacKaye on Funny
- I don't happen to have a sense of humor personally, so I don't know what's funny about a character... This happens to be a feature of my life generally.
- Wallace Shawn on Funny
- I don't hate humanity and I'm not interested in people who do. Although, it's funny, actually, some of my favorite writers really do. Like Martin Amis. My dirty secret. 'London Fields' is one of my favorite books ever. And it's indefensible! But he's so funny... I forgive him everything.
- Elizabeth Gilbert on Funny
- I don't have a bank account because I don't know my mother's maiden name.

- I don't have to look up my family tree, because I know that I'm the sap.
- Fred Allen on Funny
- I don't just try to be funny.

- Craig Ferguson on Funny
- I don't know who the hell Paul Lynde is, or why he's funny, and I prefer it to be a mystery to me.
- Paul Lynde on Funny
