I think that money spoils most things, once it becomes the primary motivating force.

Nerves are always a big problem for me, which is why I loved doing American sitcoms. Because you know when you do the take in front of the audience that you're going to do it again afterwards. A minute after you finish, you just go and do it again. So, there's that sort of safety net. And then if you made a little mistake or two, they'll go pick it up, so there's nothing to worry about.

When we hold a World Championship for a particular sport, we invite teams from other countries to play as well.

All humour is critical, you know? You make stupid jokes. I mean, stupidity is an infirmity, isn't it?

I've always called myself a writer/performer, not an actor because I basically write what I perform.

Creativity is not a talent. It is a way of operating.

On movies, I like to involve the cast in the writing of the script. I like to have a rehearsal period, after which I do the last draft, which gives me a chance to incorporate anything the actors have come up with during the rehearsal period, so I'm very inclusive as a writer.
