It's a funny old world.

I think being funny is not anyone's first choice.

Forgiveness is a funny thing. It warms the heart and cools the sting.

When I first envisioned 'Funny Games' in the mid-1990s, it was my intention to have an American audience watch the movie. It is a reaction to a certain American cinema, its violence, its naivety, the way American cinema toys with human beings. In many American films, violence is made consumable.

Do you know, it's funny, but I never thought of being blind as a disadvantage, and I never thought of being black as a disadvantage.

One of the funny things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells, and both think they are astute.

Whatever is funny is subversive, every joke is ultimately a custard pie... a dirty joke is a sort of mental rebellion.

You know the funny thing, I don't get along with rich people. I get along with the middle class and the poor people better than I get along with the rich people.

Comedy is surprises, so if you're intending to make somebody laugh and they don't laugh, that's funny.

It's funny because I've made a living off of words, but words get in the way of what you really want to say.
