“I'm a producer... I am a Hollywood producer. That is so weird. And it's not lame. But it's just like, how did that happen?”
“That decision to commit your life to certain principles and a certain narrative, if I wrote a paper on that, I know I'd find inconsistencies.”
“We've been around long enough and have been to enough award shows to know that it is easy to lose to Phil Collins at any time.”
“I just get my news from the Internet.”
“I think the neoatheists have set atheism back a few decades. And I'm a self-described atheist.”
“I've been to China and Russia, and I don't know anything about Chinese or Soviet relations.”
“I just hate that Lucas... and it is not just Lucas, because everybody does it, where, boom, they get it out, and then there's a special edition for a movie that doesn't deserve a special edition.”
“It's the business of movies, it's the fights that go along with the level of budget, and more than anything, it's the creative constipation of having to live with one idea for two or three years. It's just not that fun.”
“Sometimes I wish I could get fired.”
“We don't feel pressure of, 'Let's make this really raunchy.' It's more about making a good story, which is 10 times harder. The raunchy stuff's really easy for us.”

“I went to a couple Academy Awards parties and I was definitely like, 'Whoa, no one will talk to me.'”
“I would never want the show to be a Democrat show or Republican show, because for us the show's more important than that. It isn't for everybody else in the world, but it is for us.”
“Once you get yourselves into things that are working on a deeper level, you just have to keep going. When you reach that deeper level, you can't go back.”
“We've rewritten entire scenes and had them animated twelve hours before the show goes on the air. It's not fun.”
