More quotes by Alan King

"There's a charm, there's a rhythm, there's a soul to Jewish humor. When I first saw Richard Pryor perform, I told him, 'You're doing a Jewish act.'"
"We get the worrywart, the hypochondriac, the money-grubbing miser, the intractable negotiator... Some would say certain of these refer to the stereotypical, or 'stage' Jew. But objectively speaking, the only crime in humor is an unfunny joke."
"The world is full of little dictators trying to run your life."
"And humor has always been a weapon. You want to get even on somebody? You want to attack somebody? Make fun of them."
