Comedy Quotes

'Ralph's Party' was a romantic comedy, and at the end of it, the two main characters, Ralph and Jen, kiss for the first time and think they're going to be happy together. Then, 10 years later, I wrote a sequel in which they've been together for 10 years and are about to split up.

Where there is no belief in the soul, there is very little drama . . . . Either one is serious about salvation or one is not.
