That's what I like to do: bring out the best in people.

I like to take chances, and that's the key to comedy -- dancing like an idiot but doing it with wild abandon.

Nobody's ever kept their sitcom character going after the show's off the air.

Many of the people I've worked with over the years came from a sketch-comedy background or an improv background, and I've learned a lot from them.

I've been going to the same grocery store for 13 years, and all of a sudden one day everybody was like, 'Oh, my God.

I'd just like to retire quietly with dignity, secure in the knowledge that no more comedies will ever be made now that I'm gone.

That's the key to comedy: allowing yourself to look stupid
