More From Mel Brooks
- "Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die."
- "I don’t believe in this business of being behind, better to be in front."
- "Look, I don’t want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you’re alive you’ve got to flap your arms and legs, you’ve got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colorfully, or you’re not alive."
