I work constantly to be better at being rejected.

There's been no nepotism in my acting artistic life, but I think it's been pretty clear in my writing life. I knew what a pantoum was at age 11 - I knew form - therefore I would win the poetry contest. But I also realized that I would never be a great writer.

If I had a child and she was a girl, I'd hope she'd do something different from me.

The reason actors are assholes is because they don't eat.

Most of my comedy is accidental, I would say. If I don't know what the joke is, I'm going to play it better than if I do.

Even though I'm on a show that I love with people that I love - I have basically the dream job - that doesn't mean I'm not getting rejected on a daily basis.

I don't know if I'll ever direct, but producing is dipping my toe into my behind-the-scenes world.
