I came to America, and I made good. It's an old story, but it hasn't been told in a long time. Usually, it's, 'I'm an immigrant, I came here and got persecuted.' My story is I came here, I worked hard, and it worked out all right. So it's still available.

Sometimes my pathology just spills out into the camera doesn't it?

In some countries Women's Day is a national holiday and men give women flowers. In America Women's Day falls on another holiday, Mardi Gras, where men give women beads in the respectful and post-feminist desire to see their naked boobies.

If you absolutely believe that what you do is right, you're bullet-proof.

A lot of people come to L.A. looking for something. What I came here for, I realize now, is to be okay with myself.

I don't know now if I'm funny. I just keep talking and hope that I hit something that's funny.

For me, comedy should have a certain amount of joy in it. It should be about attacking the powerful - the politicians, the Trumps, the blowhards - going after them. We shouldn't be attacking the vulnerable.
