Mel Brooks Zitate und Sprüche

„Lachen ist die beste Herzmuskelmassage, die es gibt. Ich bin mir sicher, dass manche Filme von Chaplin, Keaton - und vielleicht sogar der ein oder andere von mir - das Leben um mindestens zwei bis fünf Jahre verlängern können.“

„Ich liebe es, in Los Angeles auf einem Freeway zu fahren und jemanden in der Schweiz anzurufen. Nicht, dass ich jemand in der Schweiz kennen würde, doch ich finde es unheimlich schick, dort anzurufen. Meistens nehmen irgendwelche Frauen ab, die ich nicht kenne.“

“I was in the middle of shooting the last few weeks of Blazing Saddles somewhere in the Antelope Valley, and Gene Wilder and I were having a cup of coffee and he said, I have this idea that there could be another "Frankenstein." I said not another — we've had the son of, the cousin of, the brother-in-law, we don't need another Frankenstein. His idea was very simple: What if the grandson of Dr. Frankenstein wanted nothing to do with the family whatsoever. He was ashamed of those wackos. I said, "That's funny."”
