I just am so tired of really badly written women. It's so boring.

I definitely enjoy an audience, when I'm performing. As I get older I'm kind of less comfortable at being demonstrative. I always fancied myself as a raconteur, but that never really worked out.

The fame thing has happened very gradually, so I've been kind of lucky.

For most of my life, I've been, ‘Hey, I'm not into it, but I respect your right to believe whatever you want'. But as time goes on, weirdly, I'm growing less liberal. I'm more like, 'No, religion is ruining the world, you need to stop!’

Being at the genesis of the creative process is definitely something I want to keep doing. It's just such a great buzz.

A guy who's actually self destructive is quite fun to play.

I get asked all the time if I want to do more dramatic acting, and I really doubt that dramatic actors get asked if they want to do more comedies. I don't really know why that is.
