The ethical argument regarding abortion hinges on the question of when life begins. Some believe life begins at forty.

I've noticed a surge when I go out somewhere, or if I'm doing stand-up.

Roxanne came along in '86, when I was doing a lot of stand-up. I auditioned for the movie, and of course I was a huge Steve Martin fan, so I really hoped I would get this part. I don't think there was any part in particular that I auditioned for. I just went in and talked with them. There were so many parts in there, and so many comedians ended up getting in that movie, playing different firemen and townspeople.

It is a great rush to come up with a joke that gets a good response from the audience. It's gold!

They say that moving is one of the most stressful things in life. Death in the family is the second most stressful, and moving your dead spouse is the third.

I learned how to draw from being bored in school. I would doodle on the margins of my paper

I played a security guard, and I think it was in the State Department. This was my first acting role, really, and I remember rehearsing it on the couch with my girlfriend at the time. I had a real problem with saying the word "incendiary." Most of my rehearsal was spent on pronouncing the word "incendiary."
