Prudent people are very happy; `tis an exceeding fine thing, that`s certain, but I was born without it, and shall retain to my day of Death the Humour of saying what I think.
Mary Worley Montagu
[On his strengths and weaknesses]: "I regret that I do not have the dignity of Ricardo Montalban, the class of Dean Martin, or the humour of Bill Cosby. I DO have the heart of a lion.
Burt Reynolds
[about the paparazzi] "Most of the time you don`t even know they`re there. Now, that`s the scary thing. It`s really strange and invading, but I`m still working it all out. I try to not let it bother me. I really try and find the humour in all of it. And i...
Heath Ledger
On Hollywood: "You`ve got to have a sense of humour about it. There`s a con going on all the time. You can smell it in the air. People are always pretending to be something they`re not in order to make a buck, to become that person they want to be."
Amanda Plummer
[On short stature]: When I was younger, definitely, I let it get to me. As an adolescent, I was bitter and angry and I definitely put up these walls. But the older you get, you realize you just have to have a sense of humour. You just know that it`s not y...
Peter Dinklage
My country is still so repressed. Our idea of what is sexual is blonde hair, long legs, 22 years old. It has nothing to do with humour, intelligence, warmth, everything to do with teeth and cleavage.
Sally Field
I spent more time in America, but I developed a very English sense of humour. I clicked into it deeply with Peter Sellers, who is still probably my favourite comedian. I loved The Goons and then I got into "Beyond the Fringe" and by accident I met Jonatha...
Christopher Guest

Gregory Smith
I do have big tits. Always had `em - pushed `em up, whacked `em around. Why not make fun of `em? I`ve made a fortune with `em. (Source: as quoted in the book "The Humour of Sex" by Robert Hale)
Dolly Parton
(On the girl that will interest him) "The usual obvious bullshit. Sense of humour, a bit of danger, good fun. A good heart is a really sexy thing. All women have the potential to be sexy and it`s nothing to do with the dress someone wears or the make-up t...
Colin Farrell
Since I was 12 or 13, I have been taking movie meetings finding a project right for me because I wanted to try it. Craig gave us the script - it was set in Wales, it is really British humour. I just loved it.
Charlotte Church
One way of watering down the effects of violence is to approach it in a more lighthearted way. I don`t mean to say that you laugh when somebody has their arm sawn off, but you can diffuse fear with humour.
Colin Baker
