"Sure, it’s uneven. For every Book of Job there’s a Book of Leviticus, featuring some of the most boring prose ever written. But if you were stranded on a desert island, what book would better reward long study? And has there ever been a more beautiful distillation of existential philosophy than the Book of Ecclesiastes? Excluding those bizarre final verses, which seem to have been tacked on long after the book’s original composition, by priests nervous about the subversive message."

"I’m trying not to pick movies I’m in. The one I really love, and it’s got every great comic in it, is this one. I could watch that movie anytime, it’s so crazy and wonderful. I saw it in the theater when I was a kid. It was a blockbuster for that era, and certainly the advertising made it seem that way. It was a beautiful movie — funny, and oh, God… It just went on and on and on. Just like the title."
