I'm just saying, 'Hey, throw me a bone. How about a smile, cute t-shirt? Look at me.' Nothing - unless it's a turn to their friends to go, 'Hey, why is that weird guy looking at us?'

When I was a bit older I had all of the George Carlin records, all of the Steve Martin records, all of the Cheech and Chong records and all of the Richard Pryor records.

My favorite part is being engaged with somebody's story and life, and getting a laugh with people I have a tremendous amount of respect for or not, and being challenged by the immediacy of conversation.

Have you ever had one of those moments when you look up and realize that you're one of those people you see on the train talking to themselves?

I'm not completely sure we aren't all living in a hallucination now.

The truth is, I can’t read anything with any distance. Every book is a self-help book to me. Just having them makes me feel better.

I don't seek controversy. I don't seek to antagonize. Sometimes it happens, but I'm not there to argue politics.
