I really loved what I was doing being creative and being funny as a stand-up comedian.

I've been fortunate to work with good directors who understand improvisation and understand the way comedians work. Luke Basan let me do my thing like do what you feel and take the character to another level. Quentin Tarrantino was more of an acting coach. He can teach you beats and then hell say go with it but give this feeling. So I've been fortunate to work with good, seasoned directors.

I've got a big closet of scripts, and a big stack of scripts on the side of my desk, because you get a whole bunch. Nothing's going to be perfect, and I realize that; but I am a perfectionist, so you go through a lot of stuff.

A black President? Now come on y'all, we got Clinton, that's close. He got negro tendencies.

Georgia was a great place to live, but I wanted to get out because I knew the opportunities for what I was doing - stand-up comedy and eventually acting - were in Los Angeles.

I wanted to cut down on the profanity, because I think I'm funnier without sayin' a lot of cuss words.

I think all the knowledge and all the travels that I've done, I'm going to do a lot of great work in the future.
