Most Comedies Are Calculated. They

I Think Of Myself As A Real Writer, Not Just Someone Who Dabbles In It, So I Deserve Some Credit.

When I've Written For Bill Murray - I've Written Six Films For Him - People Would Read It And Say, "oh, That's So Perfectly Bill." He'd Read It And Say, "are You Kidding? I Can't Say These Words." So It's All About Perception.

We Tell Our Kids That Policemen Are Good And God Protects Us And Our Country Is Noble, And At A Certain Point - And For Some It Comes Quite Early, Five Or Six Years Old - We Start To Realize That It's All A Facade.

Well, For Me, It's The Relationship Between Comedy And Life - That's The Edge I Live On, And Maybe It's My Protection Against Looking At The Tragedy Of It All. It's Seeing Life In Balance. Comedy And Tragedy Co-exist. You Can't Have One Without The Other. I'm Of The School That Anything Can Be Funny, If Seen From A Comedic Point Of View.

I Believe Things Happen That Can't Be Explained, But So Many People Seem Intent On Explaining Them. Everyone Has An Answer For Them. Either Aliens Or Things From The Spirit World.
