I'm totally aware of how lucky I am. I have health, family, children. I do work that gives me total joy and allows me to make a living, and maybe, if I'm lucky enough, I'll feel I've fulfilled a little bit of service to society because I brought other people some laughter.

All you're trying to do in an improvisation is get as much material as possible for the editing room.

If you have wonderful moments, don't second-guess them, just enjoy them.

One of my great influences was Don Knotts as Barney Fife.

People do think I'm Jewish. But we're Irish Catholic. My father had a brogue.

I've done lots of improv things but not a whole movie.
