Twitter, to me, works if you're funny. Twitter doesn't work as a promotional tool unless you do it very, very, very occasionally. Albert Brooks on funny
I've been to many funerals of funny people, and they're some of the funniest days you'll ever have, because the emotions run high. Albert Brooks on funny
I think a lot of times on TV we see caricatures - that's what's funny. Mayim Bialik on funny
I love being a dad, it keeps me fit and inspired and children are so funny. They always supply you with acting material! Wesley Snipes on funny
It's funny how most activists are pacifists. Craig Bruce on funny
I've always been part of comedy. One of the things about our family was that if we were reasonably funny with each other, particularly my two brothers and myself, when my father was upset with something you'd want to make sure in some way you made him laugh. Because when he didn't laugh, you were in trouble! Leslie Nielsen on funny
So what I do now is to pre-empt that by making the up into a virtue, and telling funny stories about how crap I am before people have a chance to notice it for themselves and think maybe I haven't realised. Emily Mortimer on funny

For some reason, people find me funny. It's quite hard to define why a thought is funny. It's even harder to define why a person would be funny. It's a word that I can't define at all. But whether I know quite what it is or not, I seem to be it. Wallace Shawn on funny
We all know funny people who can't get it down on the page - even funny writers who can't get it down on the page. Calvin Trillin on funny

It's funny how a chubby kid can just be having fun, and people call it entertainment! Garth Brooks on funny
Sometimes, comics will make the observation that it's not jokes that are funny, it's characters that are funny. And isn't that true! That's why I always kill jokes. I'm terrible at them, because I get the joke right, but I can't get the character right, and it just goes down like a lead balloon. David Mitchell on funny
I would call it a comedy variety show. We have some people just doing straight standup. We usually try to have one musical act of sort. So its just people being funny in different ways, not just sketch, not just standup, not just characters, all of those things. Todd Barry on funny
Animals are sentient, intelligent, perceptive, funny and entertaining. We owe them a duty of care as we do to children. Michael Morpurgo on funny
