Somehow, it was so happy a time. Those early days of comedy are when you get addicted to it.

I write all the time - I write poetry, I love to write

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

It was tumultuous, it was crazy, but I would not trade it for anything.

I'm just another guy who thinks he's smarter than he is, in a long line of them.

I always wanted to write as much as perform.

That’s the beauty of being a comedian: it’s the one job you’re allowed to do that. We’re lucky. We’re really lucky.
