Comedy Quotes (page 9)

I felt audiences are happier to take comedy people who play darker people because there's a link between the psychosis of comedy and the psychosis of being a twisted character. Eddie Izzard
Verse comedy is interesting to me because of the challenge of writing in rhymed couplets, which is not a form that's usually amenable to English, yet to me it gives great possibility for comedy. David Ives
I don't claim that our TV comedies are highbrow in anyway, but I think there's a basis to them, and that's why they're more popular than other TV comedies. There's a basis of truth in them, a gut feeling. Adrian Edmondson

I don't do comedy so much although I would like to do a comedy. Aaron Eckhart

It's a lot of work and I also feel like I've done it. I miss comedy. And I also think that, from purely a logistical standpoint, that the day-to-day schedule on a comedy allows you to have a life, much more of a life, than on a drama. Adam Arkin
Every time I've done comedy in, like, traditional comedy clubs, there's always these comedians that do really well with audiences but that the other comedians hate because they're just, you know, doing kind of cheap stuff like dancing around or doing, like, very kind of base sex humor a lot, and stuff like that. Aziz Ansari
The difference between tragedy and comedy: Tragedy is something awful happening to somebody else, while comedy is something awful happening to somebody else. Aaron Allston

Low comedy, empty heroics and pointless death Kurt Vonnegut
Tina Fey quote: "Finally the world would see my full range of comedy characters..."
Finally the world would see my full range of comedy characters - from grouchy librarian to Russian librarian. Tina Fey
What more ghastly image can be called up than that of a man betrayed by his body who, simply because he did not die in time, lives out the comedy while awaiting the end, face to face with that God he does not adore, serving him as he served life, kneeling before a void and arms outstretched toward a heaven without eloquence that he knows to be also without depth? Albert Camus
Although according to certain philosophers it is quite difficult to distinguish the jester from the melancholic, life itself being a comic drama or a dramatic comedy. Comte de Lautreamont
Moliere quote: "Life is a tragedy to those who feel and a comedy to those who..."
Life is a tragedy to those who feel and a comedy to those who think. Moliere

He is a [sane] man who can have tragedy in his heart and comedy in his head. Gilbert K. Chesterton
