“Chess, which exists predominantly in two dimensions, is one of the world's most difficult games. Three-dimensional chess is an invitation to insanity. But human relationships, even of the simplest order, are like a kind of four-dimensional chess, a game whose pieces and positions change subtly and inexorably between moves, whose players stare dumbly while their powerful positions deteriorate into hopeless predicaments and while improbable combinations suddenly become inevitable. To make matters worse, some games are open to any number of players, and all sides are expected to win.” WorldHumansKindTwoMatterMovingOrderThreeGamesWinningDifficultSidesPowerfulNumbersPiecesFourPlayerPositionExpectedChessInevitableCombinationStaringInsanityDimensionsHopelessSimplestInvitationsHuman RelationsHuman RelationshipsImprobablePredicaments Book:Time and the Art of Living Source: Time and the Art of Living

“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past--the portrayals of family life on such television programs as "Leave it to Beaver" and "Father Knows Best" and all the rest.” KnowsWayRealPastRememberCoursesFatherFamilyPiecesChildhoodTelevisionProgramAnd LoveVideoCombinationCollectivesBitternessParenthoodFamily LifePortrayalBeaversFather Knows Best Book:Childhood's Future Source: Childhood's Future
“The biggest piece of advice that I give young comedians is: If it's your goal to get where I'm at, go do something else. Because you'll never get here. Never. The odds are so bad.

“All the songs on the first album were like skeletons of how we really played them. It was just a combination of not having any studio experience and having to do everything so fast.
