Do you think we're going to hit a tipping point and the world's going to end?

A hole is a hole has always been my motto.

I feel the acting conservatory taught me how to be a working actor in the 1700s. We learned stuff like 'to the back of the auditorium, to the back of the auditorium' and the liquid "u." 'The payment is duuue on Tuuuesday.' I also learned how to fence. If anything, when I moved to Los Angeles, I didn't fit in, in any way. I had to do comedy, because I was talking so pretentiously.

I feel like we put all the weight on the president, rather than distributing the weight to all of the elected officials.

They [ The Simpsons] are just like the Bible to me as far as what the high-water mark of comedy.

If there's an intelligence behind the joke - - it's a good joke.

The Simpsons was pretty experimental at the time, but it attracted a lot of sitcom writers that felt confined by the limitations of live-action sitcoms in the '80s.
