I think I knew I was funny in Elementary School. I think most funny people realize it when they're young. It tends to come out of stress or trauma - something that makes you want to be funny.

You have to do anything you can think of that gets you excited.

Going to Catholic school was what fueled me into comedy. The nuns were so brutal so I used to try to make my friends laugh.

Be relentless and then you'll break through.

I've known lots of people that are talented and nothing happens. It's not about talent, it's relentless drive.

I love Kathy Griffin, I think she's brilliant, but for me, there is a line when I go OK, that's too much.

I hate being mean. I watch those roasts on Comedy Central and they make the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
