There's something dangerous about what's funny. Jarring and disconcerting. There is a connection between funny and scary.

I used to love Danish. My father used to make a Boston cream pie. You never see that anymore.

When I was a kid, I worked in the circus. It was a touring circus that was owned by a man named Terrell Jacobs. It was just one big tent, and he was a lion tamer. He didn't have any kids, but the bit was that I would dress up as his son in an identical outfit.

It's very hard to get a movie made. You could spend your life reading scripts that never got made.

By the time I was 7, I did walk-ons, catalogue modeling, you name it. In the Queens where I grew up, you didn't go bowling on Saturday; you went to dancing school.

If you do movies that are modestly budgeted, the way they finance them is they figure out how they can sell them.

I like cats a lot. I've always liked cats. They're great company. When they eat, they always leave a little bit at the bottom of the bowl. A dog will polish the bowl, but a cat always leaves a little bit. It's like an offering.
