If you make a careless choice, you can really ruin things and it can take awhile for them to repair.

I feel like when I go on stage I feel so excited at the prospect that there will be a true connection.

I learned that I was able to focus. I've always thought of myself as somebody who is like either it's there or it isn't there. I really worked at this, and I focused, and I was able to replace self-doubt with focus. That was something new for me to say self-doubt is there, but it does not need to be in the front row. You can ask it to take a back seat and replace that front row seat with focus.

Being on "SNL" was a goal that I had when I was younger. When I got fired, I just felt really mad and I felt really grossed out by the system and grossed out by myself and it just sort of knocked me on my ass.

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've only been acting since 2009 and I learn more and more with each job. I think I prepare and I'm very focused and I have a good work ethic that I learned in school.

I feel a lot of life in me and a lot of creative energy and I think it's better suited somewhere it can run free.
