Famous quotes by Mel Brooks:
"Hope for the best, expect the worst./ Life is a play. We're unrehearsed."
"Look, I really don't want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive, you got to flap your arms and legs, you got to jump around a lot, you got to make a lot of noise, because life is the very opposite of death. And therefore, as I see it, if you're quiet, you're not living. You've got to be noisy, or at least your thoughts should be noisy and colorful and lively."
"Bad taste is simply saying the truth before it should be said"
"I've been accused of vulgarity. I say that's bullshit."
"Humor is just another defense against the universe."
"Every human being has hundreds of separate people living under his skin. The talent of a writer is his ability to give them their separate names, identities, personalities and have them relate to other characters living with him."
"As long as the world is turning and spinning, we're gonna be dizzy and we're gonna make mistakes."
"If presidents can't do it to their wives, they do it to their country"
"If you're quiet, you're not living. You've got to be noisy and colorful and lively."
"If God wanted us to fly, He would have given us tickets."
"I only direct in self-defense."
"Life literally abounds in comedy if you just look around you."
