Humor is such a wonderful thing, helping you realize what a fool you are but how beautiful that is at the same time.

Every time I do a movie like Finding Neverland or Chocolat or Shakespeare in Love, we deal with the creative process, but there is humor and fun along the way. I always love that kind of movie.

There is nothing like the way people feel after they've seen The Intouchables. They feel amazing. The word of mouth on this film is incredible. It is intelligent-feeling good. You are not insulted by the low-browness or stupidity of some of the humor. It is so smart and terrific.

There are just certain things that turn my head. It may be a girl's sense of humor, it may be her wit, or her belief system it could be a lot of different things.

I find that people find a way out of misery through humor and it is humor that is often unacceptable to people who are not in quite such a state of misery.

I am lucky that my real-life Mom has both a great sense of humor about herself and an amazing ability to slip into complete denial if the subject matter gets a little too close to home.

When humor can be made to alternate with melancholy, one has a success, but when the same things are funny and melancholic at the same time, it is just wonderful.

I want someone who can keep me on my toes, has a good sense of humor and a good heart.

I have a very silly sense of humor. I have never laughed harder in my entire life than seeing someone with toilet paper stuck on the bottom of their shoe.

Whether it is viewers of the show or readers of my columns and books, I am consistently impressed with their wit, humor and insight. That goes for about 95 percent of the audience. The other five percent are why the Delete option and restraining orders were invented.

Mixing humor and politics is something that works.

People with no humor, they are outta my life.

My fam is just a regular family. But all of them have great senses of humor.

The rejection that we all take and the sadness and the aggravation and the loss of jobs and all of the things that we live through in our lives, without a sense of humor, I do not know how people make it.

I do not have a caustic sense of humor. What I find funny, that humor comes from a much gentler place.

I love poking fun at myself. I have a rather mean sense of humor.

I think a lot of humor is about distracting yourself. Pretend you are not trying to make it funny. Because for some reason the effort to be funny smells like sulphur in our culture.

It is funny. People often compare me to other humor essayists. They are usually quite nice comparisons I will accept those gladly. But I am always sort of appalled at the idea of being lumped with other, more chick-y female writers. And the truth is probably that neither comparison is accurate.

I think that sense of humor is important in marriage. A sense of humor gets people through marriage.

Sometimes a scene may be about one thing, and it may end up still being about that, but the emotionality of it comes from somewhere else, or the humor of it comes from somewhere else, and it gives it that real-life quality.
