Choices Quote by Judd Apatow
“Right when I started getting solid was when I was offered a lot of writing work. And when The Ben Stiller Show was picked up, I realized there was no way for me to do stand-up three or four nights a week and run this television show with Ben. So that was the moment when I had to make a choice.”

![“My dad was a big fan of comedy. He wanted to be a stand-up. He loved Lenny [Bruce]. He also loved Lord Buckley and jazz and stuff. He was a hipster. My parents were kind of beatnik-y, you know, for Salt Lake City. But my humor, I think, came from wanting to disarm people before they hit me.” quote by Judd Apatow](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/b6a/judd-apatow-1471_beatnik_my-dad-was-a-big-fan-of-comedy-he-wanted_87831.jpg)
