Ill Just Say Whats In My Heart:

I'll Accept Bad Taste In A Minute, As Long As There's Some Great Comedy Minds And Performances.

Comedy Is Serious - Deadly Serious. Never, Never Try To Be Funny! The Actors Must Be Serious. Only The Situation Must Be Absurd. Funny Is In The Writing, Not In The Performing. If The Situation Isn't Absurd, No Amount Of Joke Will Help.

I Don't Think In Terms Of Results At All. I Think: What Next Insanity Can I Shock The World With?

The Audience. They See The Name Mel Brooks, They Want Something Really Funny. They Don't Want To Be Moved; They Don't Want To Be Taught Any Lessons. [...] I Get More Letters For twelve Chairs and life Stinks Than I Get From Any Other Movies, Because People Actually Agree With The Philosophy, Or Were Moved, Or They Love The Movie.

He Who Hesitates Is Poor.
