Famous quotes by Michael McKean:

"I know... I'm pretty smart, aren't I?"

"I made some friends who are still friends, and this is the city of my birth. I love living here when there's a reason to, other than just moving here. I still don't like the winters here, but it's an amazing city and I love it."

"The process depends on the situation, and I don't think there are any two songs that have gone exactly the same way... well, actually, that's not true."

"He asked us to write a song. We went home, and we were out walking the dog and started playing with lyrics and melody. Annette has a wonderful ear for music. She kind of started out in musical comedy, and she's always been a singer and dancer - but she's never been a songwriter before, but she just has a great natural sense of what sounds good."

"Some people stay in the academic world just to avoid becoming self-aware. You can quote me on that."

"I think you have everyone kind of pulling on the same end of the rope. It's not like you're Robin Williams and everyone else is a deaf mute. It's like - there's plenty of help."

"Even when there are banalities, they're usually kind of benign banalities."

"They were kind of like little Stephen King stories... but these go back many hundreds of years."

"I'm kind of the town pump. I think I have a pretty good ear for what sounds good in this style."

"As far as directing, yeah, I'd like to do that. But you've got to spend at least a year, year-and-a-half doing that. It's got to be something you really love. To direct a sequel to somebody else's work is not interesting to me. To do a teen comedy, I don't think is really something I'd want to spend a year of my life doing at this point."

"When we can figure out a way to really tour and make a profit, then we'll do it again."

"You know, I think it's one of those cases where the situation really does dictate your level of ridicule."

"Sometimes we drop in and do an acoustic set somewhere, and that's really fun to take all these insanely loud songs, and to do them quiet. It's really a sight to see... or to hear!"

"I'm all over the place. As you may have seen from the credits, I write with everybody."

"That's a job that it makes a few friendships, but it probably breaks more."
