I actually like character work, so for me, generally speaking, I enjoy it. It's a little bit more of a comfortable suit you put back on. You can explore it and have fun with it and push the limits of it.

I'm so bad at spontaneous impressions.

Writers tend to hate recurring characters; there's this writer snob thing about it. But I don't have that. I feel like the challenge is always to find a cool and innovative way to do it and, obviously, to not repeat your jokes.

It’s funny, there are so many women who are former executives and have taken all that stress and anxiety and transferred it onto their kids.

I like playing the same person over and over again. I've done shows for over a year on Broadway, and I never get bored.

I'm a liberal inside a liberal's body.

I'm not a standup, but I play one on TV.
