If it weren't for fear, I wouldn't have to teach you a damn thing

The best laughs are on the recognition of truth.

I think my brain is much more intelligent than I am...so I tend to trust it.

In a scene [where the improvisers must interact] without the letter S, the audience is waiting for you to lose - so they can laugh at you. Don't try to win.

Every theatre worth anything has somebody in the middle of it who is driving it; like Joan Littlewood with her theatre.

The improvisation had to be in public, because you only get value playing to strangers.

I see a great lack of stories around. I bought six literary magazines and looked through them to see what people were doing. There wasn't a story in them. They were all about how poetic the feelings of the author were.
