I think most politicians could take a dodgeball in the face.

I grew up wanting to make movies, and along the way I suddenly found that I had a career doing comedy.

I don't think know if anything's going to translate anywhere. You're making a movie, you hope it's going to be funny, you can't think about how it's going to go over.

I've had a very good career and I'm grateful that the public has had some level of acceptance and appreciation of my work.

I love New York. I was sad, depressed and incredibly moved by our fellow countrymen and what they've done. I wanted to give people a chance to see something funny, have a distraction.

Fashion is so over the top.

Paul is Starsky, and I met him before shooting. He was very kind and encouraged us to go with what we wanted to do. It was very sweet to see them back with the car after 25 years.

Whatever talent I had, I'm sure it helped that my parents were in the business and that I grew up around actors, comedians and directors.

Sometimes I wondered whether I hadn't let my career get confined to one direction, but lately I've decided to accept the fact that I have this opportunity to be successful doing comedies.

The cliches are that it's the most generic Starsky and Hutch plot you can find.

I don't think the public is dying to see me necessarily be funny all the time.

I'm not an expert on the Malaysian sense of humor.

There's an old saying in Hollywood: It's not the length of your film, it's how you use it.

Very quickly after meeting Dustin, the whole image I had of him was shattered.

Maybe forced retirement isn't necessary after all.

It was a mixed blessing to have famous parents. It was tough to go to auditions and be bad, since I couldn't be anonymous.

Zoolander was more of my own sensibility.

I have a lot of nervous energy. Work is my best way of channelling that into something productive unless I want to wind up assaulting the postman or gardener.

You're freaked out that you're going to be having a child, and once you're looking after your daughter, it's the most beautiful thing in the world.

I enjoy the work I do in comedies. It's a valid test of your creative abilities.

Even when I'm not directing, that doesn't stop Owen from having ideas for what I should be doing.

I just watched Paul Michael Glaser. He was the reason I wanted to do the movie because as a kid I was such a big fan of his. I watched all the episodes and tried to get a feeling for what he was doing.

My own parents were touchy-feely.

I don't have a burning desire to be taken seriously as an actor. I don't have a master plan in that way.

Jim Carrey, a comic genius, has a harder time overcoming the public's desire for him to be funny simply because he's so good at it.

If you look at my eyes when I'm dancing, you'll see that glazed look.

I think people will be curious to see what I can do as a dramatic actor.

I think most politicians could take a dodgeball in the face.

I don't devalue comedy as compared to drama. Not one bit.

I dont need a compass to tell me which way the wind shines

Nobody makes me bleed my own blood. Nobody

Calculating how much carbon is absorbed by which forests and farms is a tricky task, especially when politicians do it.

If politicians continue to promote separatism in Australia, they should not continue to hold their seats in this parliament. They are not truly representing all Australians, and I call on the people to throw them out.

Both politicians and journalists face situations which strain their honesty and humanity. My opinion is that politicians on the average stand up somewhat better than journalists.

There are actually very few US politicians who have integrity and vision.

It seems to me that politicians ought to use the same words as other people.

And I think there is too much bloviating around from politicians.

Politicians trim and tack in their quest for power, but they do so in order to get the wind of votes in their sails.

A politician's goal is always to manipulate public debate. I think there are some politicians with higher goals. But all of them get corrupted by power.

Politicians like to tell people what they want to hear - and what they want to hear is what won't happen.

The future is not Big Government. Self-serving politicians. Powerful bureaucrats. This has been tried, tested throughout history. The result has always been disaster. President Obama, your agenda is not new. It's not change, and it's not hope.
