You can’t make everybody laugh. You gotta just do what you think is funny. Just be obstreperous to everybody.

I love people, I love studying people more than history. So whatever situation I see, then I look at, what were the people like, more than history itself.

For the most part, comedians are pretty friendly with each other. They always say they badmouth each other, but most of the time, they're friends. We're the only ones that can really stand our type of humor.

A weird sort of awareness set in, like, 'Wow. My stand-up isn't just separate from everything else I do anymore.' With Twitter and Face book, everything is universal that everything everybody says gets seen.

I'm not a big method actor. I'm much more superficial.

I'm quietly becoming New York's premiere actor. People don't understand. They have me pigeon-holed as a comedian.

I would say most comedians have a very cynical worldview of the way the world can work. It's almost like if you didn't, you couldn't be a comedian.
