Yes, just like Aesop's morals, some of these are contradictory. It depends on the context.

1) That's close enough for government work.

2) "Sixty seconds, Mom. That's how long he's on-stage."

3) If you didn't want to wear fur, why did you audition for an animal?

4) It's a costume, not a prom dress.

5) "I was not aware the History Channel was coming to this show."

6) More is more- think Big.

7) A comfortable actor is a happy actor.

8) Sometimes you have to suffer for your art.

9) It can be fast, cheap or good. Choose two.
