I have no regrets. The best thing to happen to me was for Lorne Michaels to hire me and fire me.

You have to be really careful to watch out for the difference between banding together, and being grouped together by people who don't understand you.

I think the main thing that affected my comedy was that my dad slept in a nightgown for most of my childhood. And it was just very funny every single night and made me realize that laughter is fun and nightgowns are cool.

I don't want to grow a thick skin. Some people say, "Oh, you're an actress, you have to get used to criticism." But I don't accept that. I'll never get used to criticism, and I'll always care about whether or not people like my performances - because I'm an entertainer, and I want to please.

There's a lot of different parts to me, so it makes total sense to me that I would do a big TV show or studio movie and then do a free comedy show the next day. They both feel equally important to me.

Although I do stand-up - doing actual stage work is terrifying for me.

I want to make every kind of movie that I can make. I don't really care if they're big or small.
