I find it creatively satisfying to write material and say it out loud in a public place, whether or not anyone's listening.

I've never really thought of myself as depressed so much as I am paralyzed by hope.

I have received more fulfillment and adulation than I would ever know what to do with in terms of show business.

Schizophrenia is hearing voices, not doing voices.

I do some compassionate mindfulness every day. It's like a Buddhist thing. I tell myself that I'm doing a good job, that kind of thing. It makes me feel better.

Some of my friends and family have tried to challenge me to do jokes that aren't as self-deprecating, where I genuinely express my own opinion in my own voice.

I just love that part of comedy, where you see somebody's jokes develop. They try something new to see what works, and I just love that part.
