“It's hard to envision but it struck me that, you know, this is a bus he could have been on at about that time and could it be? It's funny because the last thing I said to him this morning was 'It's going to be a trying day' and it turned out to be a lot more trying than we ever anticipated.”

“It's refreshing for me to try something that's different and also to expose audiences who want to see something that's funny. The Vagina Monologues only come around once a year so now we have something else to offer to those people who want to see stuff like that.”

“I also think if you're an actor and you can improvise, when you go on an audition and you can improvise you're just a genius. If you can, you know, take a Tide commercial and you can just say one funny line that's not in the commercial they think you're a genius.”

“We both are kind of hurt, we both have a little blood. It's funny. My dad told me you don't want to mess with an animal that's been hurt because they are dangerous. We need to get a win. We feel the pressure. We don't want to be in this position anymore.”

“Think of the relevant products for someone 15. It's consumer electronics. It's music. Think about when she turns 16 and first starts to drive. What associations with cars will she have when she gets her first driver's license? It's pretty funny to even talk about it.”

“The reality is, just like with adult books, a big name makes for an easier booking. Any time you're booking an author for a four-and-a-half to five-minute segment, if you're dealing with someone who's done television or comes with a track record, they are a known quantity. They know they have to have a funny or a touching story.”

“It's important for us to be together, ... It's important for me to wake up in that house. We spend a quiet day talking about Cole. I love to hear those funny stories about when he was growing up. But it's still very hard. It's very emotional for both of us.”

There is certainly no hope left of getting away. And it isn't even terrible; it's possibly funny, if even that. It's embarrassing. That's all. A little embarrassing to realize that I no longer control my life, that the major decisions have already been made, long before I was conscious that any change was occurring.

It’s a funny thing, one day you’re living and the next day you’re not sometimes, whether you have plans or not. Wishes and wants get trumped by the reaper every time. I don’t even know if I would want a warning if it was my time. I think I’d rather be surprised.

“Why not? We've played the best teams in our league tough. Our league is kind of funny because you never know how it's going to unfold. I think we're going to be in good shape as long as we take care of business at home, and we've got to get it rolling on the road.”
