More Great Homer Quotes

Homer: “See these? American donuts. Glazed, powdered, and raspberry-filled. Now, how’s that for freedom of choice?”
Homer: “I’ve learned my lesson: a mountain of sugar is too much for one man. It’s clear now why God portions it out in those tiny packets, and why he lives of a plantation in Hawaii.”
Homer: “I’ve learned that life is one crushing defeat after another until you just wish Flanders was dead.”
Homer: “Shut up, brain, or I’ll stab you with a Q-tip!”
Homer: “‘To start press any key.’ Well where’s the ‘any’ key? I see Esc, Catarl, and PigUp. There doesn’t seem to be any ‘any’ key!”
Homer: “It's about women, and how they are not mere objects with curves that make us crazy. No, they are our wives, they are our daughters, our sisters, our grandmas, our aunts, our nieces and nephews. Well, not our nephews.”
Homer: “Ooh, I love your magazine. My favorite section is ‘How to increase your word power.’ That thing is really... really.. really.... good.”
Homer: “People can come up with statistics to prove anything, Kent. Forfty percent of all people know that.”
Homer: “Your mother seems really upset about something. I better go have a talk with her - during the commercial.”

Birthplace: Queens, New York
Hank Azaria was born in Queens, NY on April 25, 1964. He attended Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts, from 1981-1985, but only received his B.A. after he completed two courses in L.A. in 1987. Nonetheless, Azaria was awarded Tufts' Light on the Hill Award in 1999.
Azaria trained at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York and is considered a master of the film, stage, and screen. He has appeared in numerous TV shows, including Herman's Head, Friends, and Mad About You as well as movies like ‘America's Sweethearts’, 'Mystery Men' and ‘Mystery, Alaska.’ He was also a bartender in New York at the Arcadia, which may have helped him prepare for his most notable role as Moe Szyslak, on Fox's The Simpsons.
He voices many members of the cast, including Police Chief Wiggum, Apu, Cletus, Professor Frink, and Comic Book Guy.
Azaria has been nominated for several Emmys and has actually received 3 of them for his work on The Simpsons itself. He also won for his performance in ‘Tuesdays With Morrie.’ Despite his busy schedule with The Simpsons, Azaria is continually busy working on new projects, one of which was Huff, in which he plays a psychiatrist with an intriguing array of patients… He was nominated in 2005 for an Emmy in the category of ‘Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series’ for his performance on Huff.
