Everyone has the gift of laughter inside of them. All the world is a prop.

When I was younger I always thought, 'If I were ever a comedian I'd make it like a rock concert.' I wanted to generate that type of enthusiasm and excitement.

I think, over the years, I've kind of evolved.

I do go through a mini depression because one minute there are people yelling and screaming for me on stage and the next I'm at home and it's dead quiet. So it takes a while to come down.

It's weird, I never wish anything bad upon anybody, except two or three old girlfriends.

I don't want to be known just as 'Carrot Top.' I don't always want to be this crazy, goofy guy.

I think it's important for me, for my crew and for the audience to bring something new to each show. I have friends who have done the same act, word for word for word, for 20 years. I have a problem with that. I think the audience should see something new in each show.
