It's very hard to be a playwright because it's very competitive.

My hope is to never act again and just do press.

Everybody feels like they need a photograph because we're in a generation where, if you don't document it, it didn't occur. So you've got to stop and take a picture with everybody.

All of my pleasures are guilty, but that's just the way I'm wired.

I did children's theater when I was younger, and then when I was about 14 I started doing theater in New York City.

I find people who want to help other people to be the most interesting. I come from a family of teachers, and my friends are teachers, often times in very difficult school situations.

I feel things can always be funny, but that's probably because I have some kind of leftover childhood need to make people laugh. For somebody like me, that's the thing you excel at.
