Zitat des Tages von Anne Beatts:
The wonderful thing about Gilda Radner was that she was not a person who disappointed.
There was this real fear in doing 'Square Pegs' after getting such a fast ride to glory on 'Saturday Night Live'. I was afraid that the word would be 'peaks early, fails to live up to promise.'

If you think of the people who are funny in your life, you'll note it's not because they tell jokes, it's because of their character. If you develop characters, then you'll know them, and you'll know how they'll speak. The comedy will come out of the character.
In some ways, what I need is a wife.
I was attracted to people who were funny because I wanted to be in that world.
