It wasn't until I moved to New York that I decided to make a conscious effort to be myself.

I think, you know, a lot of the business of comedy is taking your personal experiences and making them relatable to other people.

I approximated the Black Friday experience at home by hurling myself into a wall a number of times and then ordering online.

You really need to have that discipline. It's not even discipline. I just put down these rules. It's not like a vague, 'Motivate yourself!' and do something. Its specific hours set aside every day for certain things.

It really helped to have someone whose taste I really trusted who I knew was really smart and a really good writer. Sometimes I find it hard to judge my own work so it was good to have someone who could look at it. It was like, "Oh, she likes it, then it's good."

Just because you saw a vampire doesn't mean that a snowman or a Loch Ness Monster also exists.

I love constructive criticism. I love getting notes when I'm acting. I love them telling me what to do. I don't always agree with it, but I really need it.
