I had a very funny family.

I think I would say 'The King's Speech' is surprisingly funny, in fact the audiences in London, Toronto, LA, New York commented there's more laughter in this film than in most comedies, while it is also a moving tear-jerker with an uplifting ending.

The funny thing is that I write and I act a lot about being Jewish, but I don't really think about it as a regular person.

It's funny, when people talk about the 70s I can tell you the year of every album but when it comes to the later efforts I can't remember the exact years, it's funny isn't it?

I've always found it easier to be funny than to be serious.

And the funny thing is, I've always been an optimist - it's practically a congenital disorder with me.

It's funny how intimate it feels to get a text.

I knew exactly what to do on Alien, it was funny.

I come more to Scotland than I ever used to, so I feel more connected to it, more part of the zeitgeist. You know when you realize you have a choice and I'm choosing my homeland. It's funny: when you get older these things creep up to you.

It's funny, because when you're younger you're in a rush to be 18 or 21 or whatever. But then you hit 30. And now, the days go by like hours. You think,40, man, this could be the halfway point. It could be the three-quarters point, you know? Who knows?
