Jim Henson was an absolute genius.

All my shows are therapy, trying to navigate interesting subjects so I can work them out and to be honest and say some things are beyond the wit of this man.

I spend my jollity on stage, so there is less in my own life.

I'm more pompous and self-assured and determined that if - you know - if the truth can be told so as to be understood, it will be believed.

I find myself by default an atheist but fairly unhappily so. It would be bloody marvelous if there was a god.

The most successful comics are always the hardest-working ones.

Christians, you and your churches don't get to be millionaires while other people have nothing at all. They're your bloody rules! Either stick to them or abandon the faith.
