I'm not really an impersonator.

Cancer is probably the most unfunny thing in the world, but I'm a comedian, and even cancer couldn't stop me from seeing the humor in what I went through.

... I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Suddenly I had to spend all my time getting well.

It's such an act of optimism to get through a day and enjoy it and laugh and do all that without thinking about death. What spirit human beings have!

[Emily Litella line:] Never mind.

I've learned what I can control is whether I am going to live a day in fear and depression and panic, or whether I am going to attack the day and make it as good a day, as wonderful a day, as I can.

Motherhood . . . is an act of infinite optimism.
