I think humor delineates who your friends really are. I worked on Little Noises (1992) with Rik Mayall, and he described to me a theory of humor. With pack animals, if there`s a sick one in the bunch, the others will growl at it and try to get rid of it. This translates to the comedian on-stage. There are two types of comedians. One who says, "Everybody laugh at that person," and the braver comedian who makes them laugh or growl at himself. It brings people together. The audience laughs at this sick thing: they become a part of this clan or tribe. And that`s where you get your friends: you share a certain humor about the sick and the foolish.
- Crispin GloverDon`t think of retiring from the world until the world will be sorry that you retire. I hate a fellow whom pride or cowardice or laziness drives into a corner, and who does nothing when he is there but sit and growl. Let him come out as I do, and bark.
- Samuel JohnsonWe loved it. The kids have uniforms with the likeness of a cat. The cheer is like letting out a mountain lion growl. Unlike the higher leagues that have familiar names like the Yankees or Dodgers, this is unique.
