Mel Brooks Stupid Quotations

Well, just being stupid and politically incorrect doesn't work. You can be politically incorrect if you're smart.

There's no such thing as too far. If it works it's funny, if it doesn't work it's too far, it's stupid. Really there's no such thing as "too far." You're joining the politically correct when you use words like "too far." You don't want to join the army of politically correct.

You want to be as smart as you can about being stupid.
