Being a big star and being known, making movies and a lot of money - that really doesn't interest 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 love traveling. It not only opens my mind up, but it also allows me to use my fame in another way through humanitarian works and stuff, and being an influence around the world.

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

Just believe in yourself and work really hard. And when doors open, take advantage of every opportunity you can.

Making people laugh is giving, and it's healing, too, when people can go up to the movies and forget about their problems. It's a good thing. That's why I want to work.
