I'm a believer in trusting the director.

Regret is just perfectionism plus time.

There's not many good comedies to watch - you know, comedies that make you glad you watched them.

It's not always enough to be brave, I realized years later. You have to be brave and contribute something positive, too. Brave on its own is just a party trick.

Mindy Kaling gets her own line in the acknowledgments, as previously negotiated by her representatives. Thanks, Mindy. I love you and you're the best.

'The Office' is less a comedy than so many other "comedies" that have been on the air. It's really about the balance between what is real and what is comic.

Good comics gravitate to each other; you know who's your type of person by watching them onstage, hopefully.
