We mocked that concept ['movies are better than ever'] by doing a sketch that was about a theater trying to get one customer to come in...and that customer was Jerry Lewis. It generated so much controversy that Dean [Martin] and Jerry [Lewis] had to apologize in a full page ad in Variety.

Norman Lear

I learned in grade-school that after WWII European politicians considered sending Jews to Madagascar instead of Palestine. At the time I thought: Madagascar would've been so great.

Jill Soloway

I like the Stooges. You know what movie I saw that I sort of discovered late was Jerry Lewis in 'The Nutty Professor'. I really liked that.

Mike Judge

Jerry Lewis has been married twenty times. He gets married on a Tuesday, they find his wife dead in a swimming pool on Thursday. Maybe if you married someone who's old enough to swim next time, Ok Jerry?

Denis Leary

I'm the Jerry Lewis of crime fiction.

Harlan Coben

In the eighties, I was fortunate to be one of the young art directors that Jerry Roach, creative director at JWT New York, took under his wing. He taught me how to use typography more visually, to push against design norms and not to rely on preconceived notions of what something should look like. I learned that nuance is everything and to agonize over the details. I have Jerry to thank for driving plenty of people crazy over the years!

John Butler

When I started surfing, you'd hear this neat rumbling sound when you took off and go for the drop, and when the wave is lipping up over the top of you, it makes this hissing sound.

Dick Dale

I was on the road with Jerry Lee Lewis when I was 15 - I can't imagine not doing it. That's what I do.

Leon Russell

Jerry Weintraub, the producer, might be a pain in the ass, but he really knows how to treat his actors.

Bernie Mac

We'd play the American bases and found all these wonderful records by Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Fats Domino, Sam Cooke. Without American music, there would not have been a British Invasion.

Dave Clark

What I always say is that we're the illegitimate children of Andy Kaufman and Jerry Lewis.

Kevin McDonald

I grew up on Don Knotts and Jerry Lewis and all the guys from Second City.

Harland Williams

I grew up on Jerry Lewis and Abbot and Costello, the Marx Brothers.

Drake Bell

My influences were Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis and Chuck Berry.

Micky Dolenz

My inspiration to do comedy came from many places. Saturday mornings, I would watch Bob Hope and Jerry Lewis movies. I later got into watching stand-ups like Eddie Murphy, who was my main inspiration.

Erik Griffin

I think Jerry Lee is sad. As a musician, he was far more talented than Elvis Presley. Everybody down in Memphis knows that. Elvis became a movie star because he was beautiful. Not that Elvis wasn't talented, but Jerry Lee Lewis was incomprehensibly talented as a musician.
