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.

I'm just looking for authentic engagement of some kind, and usually, after an hour or more, you get that. Some people talk at you. Some people just want to answer questions, but a lot of times, all of a sudden you drift away, and you don't remember you're on the mic, and you're in something real.

I'm not a narcissist, but I definitely have gotten enough explosive narcissistic shrapnel from my father. I'm sort of wired that way, but I don't feel that I'm pathological, so all I can pull from is my own existence and my knowledge.

When I was a young kid I loved Don Rickles, Buddy Hackett and Jackie Vernon.

Show business is one of the few businesses that the devil will actually agree to own just a portion of your soul because he knows if you have a performer's ego you were probably working for him all along.

I'm weird; I have a very strange emotional memory. I really somehow hold on to even passing moments with people.

The way I figure it, if you can't tell I'm high by looking at me, I win.
