I'm a traveling practical joker. That's my line of work.
My father, the practical joker, did not care for practical jokes on himself; he did not encourage the practice in me.
I want to play my Joker. Not the Joker, but my Joker. Somebody who can have fun doing wrong.
I was a practical joker as a teenager and I still am today - you can ask any of my staff.
The Joker is a tremendous vehicle for talented actors. Cesar Romero's was a bubbly, lunatic criminal. Nicholson did him as a vain, preening manipulator. Heath's performance of the Joker was remarkable, too. His was a low-simmering crazy street clown. Joker can be played all these ways, and they're all true.
We were facing a financial crunch in the early 1970s because Mera Naam Joker' didn't work and we suffered huge losses due to that. My father was very fond of Mera Naam Joker' and made it with a lot of passion, love and money according to those days. But it flopped.
Elvis was, at least the times I was around him, Elvis was a practical joker. He was always, had some little mischievous something going.
My dream role is to play in a story of how the Joker became the Joker, and I would play the young Heath Ledger.
The hardest part about traveling for work is that I'm a big guy, so traveling is sometimes uncomfortable for me.
I'd worked with Marlon [Brando] a couple of times, and he was a practical joker. He was far more interested in getting jokes out than getting the words out. We laughed all the time.
When the man is traveling with a man, he says, "Let's stay up late and work on this and get this to be better." When the man's traveling with the woman, for the sake of appearances he doesn't do the work with her. That's a lost opportunity for her to be a success.
I can like Jack Nicolson's Joker, and I can like Heath Ledger's Joker. There's other Jokers I don't have to like.
It has long been my personal view that the separation of practical and theoretical work is artificial and injurious. Much of the practical work done in computing, both in software and in hardware design, is unsound and clumsy because the people who do it have not any clear understanding of the fundamental design principles of their work. Most of the abstract mathematical and theoretical work is sterile because it has no point of contact with real computing.
The voice has been my joker card that sometimes has played like an ace and sometimes a joker. When you sing the way I sing, it's impossible to get people to talk about anything else.
So once I thought of the villain with a sense of humor, I began to think of a name and the name "the Joker" immediately came to mind. There was the association with the Joker in the deck of cards, and I probably yelled literally, 'Eureka!' because I knew I had the name and the image at the same time.
It will not do merely to listen to great principles. You must apply them in the practical field, turn them into constant practice. What will be the good of cramming the high - sounding dicta of the scriptures? You have first to grasp the teachings of the Shastras, and then to work them out in practical life. Do you understand? This is called practical religion.
A boy or girl who has gone through the eight grades should possess a complete, practical education and should have received special training in some specific line of work, fitting him or her to earn a livelihood.
