Comedy is obviously a matter of personal taste and the world always needs a clown and some people have no taste at all and any clown will do.

My cats, the ones that I have, were feral when I found them so the relationship that I have with them 10 years in is very mutual, earned, and evolved over time. It was never an easy thing. I like that they have a certain distance and have their own sense of selves.

Faith in the face of disappointment is only enhanced by laughter in the face of pain.

For 15 years of my life I smoked, I drank, I used to do drugs... but during that time, I never once thought I was going to die. But the second I set foot on a stairmaster -the second- I am sure my heart is gonna explode and blood is gonna spray out of my nose.

I'm not fundamentally a writer. I know writers, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for them. It bothers me that no matter how well I do it, it's not really my format.

I've become less angry and a little more humble by age and by experience and by going through the ups and downs of life.
