If you over-think, it affects things too much; I work instinctively, like painting in a way. Think too much, and you ruin everything.
Chris LilleyI get bored with the constant probing for the cliched tears of the clown, the dark side of the comic.

Chris LilleyOnce I got into high school, any time I had to do a talk or a speech, I just loved being up in front of an audience, it was always a character. And then I discovered that an impersonation of the teacher was a really, really good way to get a laugh, and it would also get you good marks, because the teachers were always bored and loved to be the "teacher-parody." So that became my little trick at school, and I became known for doing that.
