The Bible is the funniest book I have ever read. It's so funny! Right in the first six pages, it's funny!

I am truly passionate and concerned about the lack of empathy that people show towards one another.

That's what social media is, that's what Twitter is, that's what Facebook posts are. It's just really anti-intellectual.

In New York, you are constantly faced with this very urgent decision that you have to make, about every twenty minutes...you have to decide, immediately, you have to go "Ohmigod. Do I look at the most beautiful woman in the world or the craziest guy in the world?"

There were a number of referendums in '98 that most of the things I voted for passed. That's very satisfying when you feel that most of the country is in step with your views.

I'll think of the idea and then I'll write something down, then within that there will be a joke or two which is the original thing which I thought was funny.

There is also a kind of mean-spiritedness with LA comics.
