The Canteen Boy, the reason you feel bad for him and you can laugh is because he, and I guess a lot of my characters, they don't notice they're getting made fun of. So they'll say something back that's not that great a quip, but in their mind they won the argument.
Adam Sandler

Great, Fun, Mind

Courteney Cox

Friendship, Great, Him

Gus Van Sant

Good, Experience, Made

Catharsis isn't art. You can't rely on catharsis to get a laugh. Because guess what? People do laugh when something's shocking, but that is, to me, the absolute fakest of laughs. That's not something that sustains a television series, or a movie, or even 45 minutes of a stand-up set at Carolines.
Mindy Kaling

Art, Movie, Television

Cameron Diaz

Music, Hurt, Simple

First, I want to pay tribute to Diana myself. She was an exceptional and gifted human being.

Queen Elizabeth II

Good, Smile, Kindness
