Writing is hard - writing is the hardest.

A lot of independent films offer a harsh reality check.

Louis C. K. is one of my all time favorite standup comedians.

I would never do a commercial for something that is embarrassing, and I think that people maybe have a different perspective on what is embarrassing or not. Some people think doing a Revlon hair commercial is really cool. To me, that's embarrassing, but World of Warcraft: not embarrassing, very cool.

When I was doing comedy in New York, before I was in movies, I was never known as the deadpan actress. I was just a comedienne.

There are always parts of me that come out in the characters that I play - it's the only thing I have to work with and to draw off of.

My first boyfriend that I ever had, actually sang a song that he wrote for me on-stage to ask me out. That was pretty romantic.
