The world really changed after 9/11, not just in the tragic way, but in every way. So it took me a couple of years to even understand how my art form I could process any of this. When the world changed, eliciting laughter with subjects that were funny to me before 9/11 just didnt seem good enough.

I don't want to be the one to break it to you, but the future ain't that funny.

If you paint, write, do mosaics, knit - if it's solving that part of your brain saying, 'I need to do this,' you've won.

I, sort of, got into comedy accidentally, and it got bigger than I wanted it to.

I've always liked to think ahead. Not stupid-far ahead. A hundred years doesn't interest me. But 20 years interests me, and more for what happens to humans as opposed to things.

I've seen the future! It's a bald-headed man from New York!

I think anger and laughter are very close to each other, when you think about it.
