I had a dream I was walking down the street and didn't have to hold anyone's hand

I like the idea that we can contain our weirdness, but I prefer it when we wear it all over ourselves.

I'm not a big note-taker, so I think that the way I decide is that whatever I remember I always consider something that's important. If I remember a joke then I know it's a good joke, if I remember a story then I know it's a good story, and so that's how I curate what stories I'm going to write for the book. And I go over them again, make sure there's a theme and all that stuff, but mostly, it is intuition.

Canadians always make jokes about the arrogant American, but the longer I'm here, the more I realize, "Oh, it isn't that they're arrogant, it's just the way that their country is set up you really have to protect yourself and you really have to look after yourself, and with that comes the mentality of 'I'm doing my thing here, if you don't like it, get over it.'"

I wasn’t old enough to realize that I could be my terrible self and have people love me for that.

When you listen to people who have accomplished so much, the one thing they always say is, "I didn't let anybody stop me." I really, really, steadfastly believe that.

I like how glasses suggest intelligence instead of broken eyes.
