#Failing

"In a way, a lot of my humor comes from presenting things that are dramatic or shocking and then people not having socially appropriate responses, having people denying the drama by failing to react to it, and that's a really classic form of humor."

"Success is not in never failing, but rising everytime you fall!"

"I always thought the biggest failing of Americans was their lack of irony. They are very serious there! Naturally, there are exceptions... the Jewish, Italian, and Irish humor of the East Coast."

"Life isn't always what you expect it to be. Sometimes it hands you lemons and other times sugary sweets. But there are no shortcuts to your dreams. So if one way doesn't lead you to your goal. Find another one."

"Filmmaking, like any other art, is a very profound means of human communication; beyond the professional pleasure of succeeding or the pain of failing, you do want your film to be seen, to communicate itself to other people."
