  • I don't love comedy but I can watch someone who's kind of interesting forever. I think a waitress who's having a bad day is a lot more fun than Robin Williams doing forty minutes of material.

  • I hate to sound like Julie the cruise director but it's people that I think about all the time.

  • I got involved in improv comedy. It settled me down when I was getting wild. I was sort of an evil teenager smashing up my cars and drinking and driving, let's just say, a lot.

  • However, we couldn't focus on the films much during the series because we're dumb. Individually we're smart guys, but together we're one big dumb guy, and couldn't concentrate on two things at once.

  • We see less of Dave, certainly, and he's kind of fallen out of the sphere of our group, mostly because he's working on his show, and has kind of lost the fun of the party.

  • Is it spoken word? Kinda, but that's a weird area. Is it comedy? Well, it's funny but no, it's not comedy.

  • Yeah, we're sweet but savage, and I think a lot of Canadians are that way.

  • I would rather be a security guard than a rock star.

  • I think you're the grumpy Kid in the Hall, I'm the nice Kid in the Hall.

  • I like to do little obsessed losers, or people who are in over their head, or people who are trying to figure stuff out, or guys whose girlfriends leave them and they don't quite get it. Guys who just don't quite get it.

  • You know, funny is this weird word for me. I hear is so many times it has no meaning anymore.

  • Cancer Boy probably has the saddest, noblest, sweetest heart of any character I've ever done."

  • No, they're nice guys. They wear girdles, but they're nice guys.

  • I'm just ah, actually developing a tv show for HBO, and I'm directing a film this summer, and actually I'm doing some live shows out in western Canada.

  • No, I don't run all the way. I'm not like an Olympic class runner.

  • Cancer Boy probably has the saddest, noblest, sweetest heart of any character I've ever done.

  • L.A. Woman is amazing, but when I was growing up I was into the Who.

  • I think you can see that in the show. Music was my touchstone. Music is still much more important to me.

  • In terms of the series, we worked separately, getting together in rehearsal to beat out the material.

  • But we wanted to work in a way we never had, which was write everything together. We had to face each other in the same creative room, which gets tougher as you get older, because you don't want to be confrontational.

  • I got through college realizing business was repugnant.

  • To me, Doors fans were always the 16-year-old idiots at parties, getting stoned, and talking about how Morrison's lyrics were like poetry... like that was a deep thought.

  • I'm in a rut deep enough to hang posters.

  • Most of the people I know in bands, all they are concerned about is getting to do the next record.
