I really enjoy being a dad, and maybe I took it too seriously, but I love being around my kids.

A mom and dad found an S&M magazine under their 10-year-old son's bed, and the dad said, 'Well, we sure can't spank him.'

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

The two things that can hurt you are if you need money or if you need fame. Those are the things that can be your Achilles' heel. But if you don't need money and you don't need fame, then you're free.

I did a lot of ridiculous television. Between 1980 and '85 I had no confidence, so I did everything I was told to do.

I enjoy pushing my characters to the limit. No matter how far out there I go, I look for things that make the characters human.

I don't find biology as interesting as politics and humanism. I talk more about existential stuff.
