My characters all start with rhythms and sounds. Once I hear the voice and get into the rhythm, the attitude and the physicality just come out on their own.

I had auditioned for 'Saturday Night Live' two or three times before and never really saw myself there. I looked up to Belushi and Bill Murray and Aykroyd and I never saw myself as in their world.

I never read the tabloids.

I have a theory that if you're famous more years than you're not famous, then you get a little nutty.

Am I not turtley enough for the Turtle Club? Turtle! Turtle!

Well, I loved variety in television, I loved sketch comedy. At 'Saturday Night Live,' I stayed almost seven years.

You know, sometimes you can't just take an armadillo, put it in the barn, light it on fire and expect it to make licorice.
