You shouldn't get too close to the truth, because then maybe you stop being funny.

The only way to survive is to have a sense of humour.

I kind of do it in my head, then I'll try pieces of it on stage and if it looks promising, I'll put it together.

I never had an aversion because I was active in the drama club. If I had that aversion I certainly wouldn't put myself in the position of being on stage. Of course, in the drama club you're hiding behind a character.

I think you should be a child for as long as you can. I have been successful for 74 years being able to do that. Don't rush into adulthood, it isn't all that much fun.

The best advice I could give someone trying to get into the comedy field is to take advantage of every opportunity you have to work to hone your skills.

Television series are like the stock market. There's room for bears and bulls but no room for pigs.
