I tell people that stand-up's like golf: you gotta do it every day to get it down - or at least three times a week to get it down.

Being a big star and being known, making movies and a lot of money - that really doesn't interest me.

I think real life reflects your movies. In your life, you pick stuff that influences what movie roles you wanna pick. I think if you've got an interesting life, you wanna do interesting movies about interesting things.

I want to do movies that mean something, that make people laugh and cry great movies, period-piece movies and work with the best people out there, who bring the best out of me.

In stand-up you can go either way. It's live. Somebody might say something in the crowd, you might respond to it. But in a movie you could be spontaneous too. But you pretty much have to stick to that story or that scene or that script, but in stand-up you can go wherever you want to. It's more freedom.

One thing about me, when I make a decision about something, I realize when you make choices in life, that dictates your life.

I think my life is a movie and your life reflects your work.
