I was a class clown, of the classic term for it. I would get the work done easily, and then I would try to deprive other people of their educations. I developed skills for mimicry, and I was a good showoff. I knew how to get attention, and I knew how to do it in a positive funny way.

Religion cruelly exploits our need to feel connected.

My books and records are arranged according to subject, and within each subject, they're alphabetical by author or artist. The music tapes are alphabetical and the performance tapes are in chronological order.I like to control my environment, because I feel if I have my physical space in order, then I'm free to dream.

I grew up in New York wanting to be like those funny men in the movies and on the radio.

It's all bullshit, folks and it's bad for ya.

I go to bed early; my favorite dream comes on at nine.
