- Simon: (about how it is on the set of "The Big Bang Theory") Sometimes I try to create some trouble. I just punch one of them in the stomach just to get things moving or make these interviews more interesting. It's pretty much just five friendly people just going to work and being happy to be around each other.

- Simon: I think working for the audience for me is the most fun. It's really a chance for something to work towards. It's where everything kind of comes together and you have to make it work. You have all these people who are sitting there, wanting to have a good time and wanting to laugh. You really have no choice but to pull it out.

- Simon: I've worked with a lot of great people, some briefly and some in my depth. I've had a lot of fun, really. I try to have fun as much as I can on everything I do.
