I have very nice cars. I never get to drive them, because I'm never home.

You live by the cake, you die by the cake.

There are certain bits in my act that will never change.

The first time I got on stage I was 10 years old and I did impressions. I did cartoon characters and I really got the bug for this life when I saw that people were laughing and saw the attention I was getting.

That was the challenge. How can you tell the story here and make sure it goes the same way on the other side of the world?

When you hear "Seinfield," no one says, "the Jewish comic." You talk about Cedric the Entertainer, you don't say, "African American comedian Cedric the Entertainer." Even Margaret Cho - who's like one of three Korean performers out there - no one refers to her like that. They say, "It's Margaret Cho."

Why do people measure life by the years instead of how good the years were?
