Maz Jobrani Zitate

My parents come from that immigrant culture that places a lot of emphasis on doing well scholastically. Being a comedian or an actor is such an American thing. The Iranian culture is not about dreaming. It's about taking over your father's business, falling into line.

Meine Eltern stammen aus dieser Einwandererkultur, die großen Wert darauf legt, gut scholastisch zu sein. Ein Komiker oder Schauspieler zu sein, ist so eine amerikanische Sache. In der iranischen Kultur geht es nicht ums Träumen. Es geht darum, das Geschäft Ihres Vaters zu übernehmen und in Einklang zu bringen.

A lot of what 'Funny Girl' is about, for me, is the experience feeling very happy doing a certain thing with a certain group of people. That partly came about because of having really positive experiences writing movies.

It's important to not marginalize any people group in fiction. A complete, authentic-feeling world should include many different elements of life and culture. For this reason, my books will almost always contain people of faith.

I'm not in the business of becoming famous. And that's the advice I give to younger aspiring actors. Work onstage and do the little roles. In the end it's not important to be seen. It's important to do. There's a lot of disappointment in this business, but my family keeps me grounded.
