Mel Brooks

Mel Brooks

I only direct in self-defense.
Mel Brooks

Look, I don't want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colorfully, or you're not alive.
Mel Brooks

Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die.
Mel Brooks
