There's no better feeling in the world than a warm pizza box on your lap.

Thanksgiving, man. Not a good day to be my pants.

From there, I tried out for a community theatre play, joined an improv group... it all started opening up.

I took a public speaking class in college and managed to make the class laugh a little bit.

There's no better feeling in the world than a warm pizza box on your lap.

I really wasn't a class clown.

A song can take you to a special time in your life.

As American as an apple is and as American as baseball is, they don't go together. You can't be chewing an apple at a baseball game. You've got to let go of the diet that day.

Back in '93 I saw my first UFC fight and just became enamored by it then.

Every few months I'll pop into a comedy club or go to Vegas.

Every time I do a movie where it gets physical, I say never again.

For some reason and I don't know why, but I don't think that I'm funny in California. So I always want to do my movies east somewhere.

I don't want to be known as this goody-two-shoes who can only do comedies where puppies are licking peanut butter off my face.

I had many teachers that were great, positive role models and taught me to be a good person and stand up and be a good man. A lot of the principals they taught me still affect how I act sometimes and it's 30 years later.

I had my boy in Boston on Easter Sunday. That kills me, from a sports perspective. He's a Boston baby and I'm a New York guy.

I just want to put some positive stuff out there. If it works, great. If it doesn't, no problem.

I never played a musical instrument growing up but I knew kids who did and took it very seriously.

I never played music, but it's an important thing ... the studying, the inspiration.

I think I invented the phrase 'Don't overdo it.'

I would always love to be an athlete, but it's got to be a tough day when you have to hang up those cleats.

I've always been the guy who doesn't necessarily get it with women. A woman would have to say, 'I like you, I want to go out with you, you can ask me.' And still I would question it. Did she mean it?

If I do a movie where I have to have a son and it's a chubby kid, my mother is always like, 'You were never like that.' She gets so upset about it.

It's always cool to meet people who can do things that you have no capacity to do.

Just me onstage with a mike having an intimate relationship with the audience. I don't get nervous for that. I just get excited.

Now I'm starting to jog. But every time I do jog I have 9-1 pressed into my phone, with the next '1' ready to be launched in case I drop.

Once a year my back will go out and it'll be... it's like a sciatic thing and it's the smallest thing. Like I could be leaning over the sink to brush my teeth in a weird way and it happens.

Teachers have a chance to mold someone, inspire them. I hope all teachers realize that.

You think school ends when it ends, but it doesn't.

Theres no better feeling in the world than a warm pizza box on your lap.

Thanksgiving man. Not a good day to be my pants.

Pie...it fills the cracks of the heart. Go away, pain.

Without feeling abashed by my ignorance, I confess that I am absolutely unable to say. In the absence of an appearance of learning, my answer has at least one merit, that of perfect sincerity.

Words are the children of reason and, therefore, can't explain it. They really can't translate feeling because they're not part of it. That's why it bugs me when people try to analyze jazz as an intellectual theorem. It's not. It's feeling.

The best compliment to a child or a friend is the feeling you give him that he has been set free to make his own inquiries, to come to conclusions that are right for him, whether or not they coincide with your own.

The feeling remains that God is on the journey, too.

I've always wanted to sing, just as I've always known that one day I would have my own niche in the annals of song. It was a feeling I had.

The methods of peace propaganda which aim at establishing peace doctrine by argument and by creating a feeling favorable to peace in general seem to fall short of reaching the springs of human action and of dealing with the causes of the conduct which they seek to modify.

I love making people laugh. It's an addiction and it's probably dysfunctional, but I am addicted to it and there's no greater pleasure for me than sitting in a theater and feeling a lot of people losing control of themselves.

Then came the choreography... the impact of music and choreography tends to really emphasize an overall feeling of what you really want out of the program.

On that road of the informer, it is always night. I cannot ever inform against anyone without feeling something die within me. I inform without pleasure, because it is necessary.

I was as big as I have ever been. I had a personal trainer and was working out. I was feeling good. I was muscular. I had never weighed more than 155 pounds.

Lately, I can't shake the feeling that I've been living a dream for the last 10 years or so; I can't account for most of my 20s, and I have to continually remind myself that certain people are dead now and many of my friends have children.

The key to the mystery of a great artist is that for reasons unknown, he will give away his energies and his life just to make sure that one note follows another... and leaves us with the feeling that something is right in the world.

Collectively, we must do more than simply watch, with resignation and a feeling of powerlessness, reports on the evening news about the latest terrorist atrocity.

But even if I'm left high and dry at the end of this wild journey, just taking it is a great feeling.

For me concrete poetry was a particular way of using language which came out of a particular feeling, and I don't have control over whether this feeling is in me or not.

They must have a feeling of do or die. It is such an overcrowded profession.

You know that day after day of, Oh God what am I going to do with myself feeling? The fear of the emptiness that it implies keeps me going.

But I remember feeling as a producer I felt like the guy who called the caterer and got the band; I had to work the party while everybody else was having a good time.
