You can't be funny unless you're tragic, and you can't be tragic unless you're funny.

For me, going to London is like coming home. In fact, I've often entertained the idea of ending my days there.

You can't be funny unless you're tragic, and you can't be tragic unless you're funny.

It's a pain in the ass, show business. And the only time that I really enjoy it is when I'm in front of an audience and they're reacting to me.

I don't think there's any thrill in the world like doing work you're good at.

When you're dealing with your life, my God, you gotta tell the truth.

I tell the truth, and it has gotten me into a lot of trouble. My dad used to say to me, 'If you tell the truth all day long, you will end up in jail.'
