As I got more successful, I felt it was more incumbent upon me to help the other people. I did more and more and the more I did the more I wanted.

It was a show that you played at home and you're saying to the contestant do this and do that. When you at home are involved in yelling at the screen, then you know you've got an audience.

Actually, I'm an overnight success, but it took twenty years.

At my house, it's an, 'If dad says it, you can say it' kind of deal, so a lot of my slang words come off very childish at this point in my career.

Biology has tended to be an observational science and deriving things from first principles has not been possible in the past but I hate to predict the future on that.

The reason I dislike talking about the creative process is that I do have a creative process that is a winner and it's a sure thing.

If you write songs and if you write music that's very sincere and very honest, it's pop music, but it is pop music with a lot of honesty and a lot of heart.

It's about putting in the hours and going through the paces.

Networks like Adult Swim allow artists to be artists and allow their vision to come through without a lot of tinkering. I worked on 'Moral Orel' and 'Mary Shelley's Frankenhole,' and they bothered us very little. They very, very seldom came to us and said 'Change this,' or 'You can't do that,' or 'We'd like to see this.'

Why are we in this mess, now facing the prospect of economic armageddon? It's because the prevailing characteristic has been greed, and it doesn't matter whether it's individuals living beyond their means or governments living beyond their means or people seeking to get rich quick.

Twitter is wonderful. You can kill rumours instantly.

The Bible was not written for entertainment purposes, so it's a real hodgepodge and a compendium of all kinds of stuff.

I like travelling on my own. It means I'm completely free to think about what's around me.

Personal branding is about figuring who you are and what turns you on and then monetising it

Is your remarkably sexist drivel intentional, or just some horrible mistake?

Whenever I play recitals, the part where I talk about music and my experiences of music, audiences always like it. They feel more involved with an artist who talks to them. It's a nice experience for me as well.

I have a coach, but I'm not theater-trained or a technical actor.

My parents are older, and they lead a somewhat sheltered life. It was difficult to talk with them about things that were embarrassing to me, and that I had never spoken to them about.

With demands for special education or standardized test prep being shouted in their ears, public schools can't always hear a parent when he says: 'I want my child to be able to write contracts in Spanish,' or, 'I want my child to shake hands firmly,' or, 'I want my child to study statistics and accounting, not calculus.'

I'm not one of those people who hates Amazon because they're big. Why pay a third more for the same thing?

It seems like I've always been singing, at least since I was 5.

I am a very shy, introverted guy.

I have a Chevy Impala that I roll around in and a '89 Jeep Wrangler, which is the first car I ever bought. It has 180,000 miles on it, and that is my daily whip. I take that everywhere. Don't forget where you came from, that's why I'll never get rid of that Jeep.

No one learns as much about a subject as one who is forced to teach it.

When we created 'Goodness Gracious Me,' it was quoting 'Python' and Woody Allen lines that really bonded the writers, and the 'Spamalot' material is so utterly, wonderfully surreal that it hasn't dated.
