I've never been mean-spirited, in my opinion. I never did anything below the belt.

The transformation has been unbelievable. When I started here, I worked in a place where the Sky Room was on the second floor.

I don't really tell a joke, I react to situations. The whole thing is just looking at somebody and showing all our weaknesses and exaggerating them, and that's how it becomes funny.

I was with George Washington at Valley Forge, sitting around before an attack... gimme a break. That's over 70 years ago already.

I grew up in an Orthodox family, as I grew older, I became Conservative and that's how it ended up. But I've developed that Jewish feel to my act from my surroundings and my family.

I've never walked off stage and said, I shouldn't have done that. Because when you do what I do, you're like a fighter. You throw the right hand and say, That's what got me to this dance. You can't have doubt. If you have doubt, there's no show.

To me, the stand up part in my life is great. I know I can do that. When I get an acting chance, I'm really thrilled.
