Your work is a separate thing from you. You are this person who has your friends and your life, and you have to see the separation. If you see the separation between your work and yourself it's so much easier.

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.

I was always trying to do things to make school fun.

I think comedians have a function in society, which is to make fun of our icons.

The best thing about becoming successful is that you get flowers all the time.

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