I don't really tell a joke per se, I build up an attitude and it becomes a joke.

I've never been able to tell jokes. In the beginning of my career I did impressions and jokes like any other comedian, but I was never very successful because I did it poorly. So I started to talk to the audience and started talking about the atmosphere around me and started to become angry, not in a mean-spirited way, but in a fun way - and my attitude developed from there.

That I walk around calling people 'dummy' and 'hockey puck'. I do have a different life apart from being sarcastic on stage. I might kibitz around with my friends, but I'm nothing like the person who does stand up. Nothing like that.

I have no idea what I'm going to say when I stand up to give a toast. But I do know that anything I say I find funny.

Frank Sinatra enjoyed my humor, so I could say almost anything to him. I mean, within reason.

When you're 18, you're just so busy being scared and having fun - a crazy mixture - that you never thought of dying.

So many young people think the big sex act is the whole movie, but that's not the case. You need to be able to talk and laugh and cry together.
