Thinking of Plan B muddies up your chances of succeeding at Plan A.

You live your comedic life close to the edge, you're gonna cross the line and offend people.

Still when I go on talk shows, I worry that I have to live up to a comedic persona.

There are times in your life when you feel like the dumbest man on the planet and you’re insecure about something, and then there are times where you feel like, “Hey, I’m a pretty smart guy and I’m pulling it together …”

I waited tables in New York, and when you're in that line of work, you often have a horrible boss.

You cannot let a fear of failure or a fear of comparison or a fear of judgment stop you from doing what’s going to make you great. You cannot succeed without this risk of failure. You cannot have a voice without the risk of criticism and you cannot love without the risk of loss.

I never saw myself as a comedian. I saw myself as a guy who can act funny.
