When you're 18, you escape if you want to. Sixteen, you're still really depending on the people around you. You can't drive, and you can't support yourself. You can't legally be responsible for yourself.

I'm not stereotypically Canadian. I don't really follow hockey. I don't feel like anything other than myself, basically.

It's so easy to get caught up in your own self-doubt when you're writing. It can be so easy to tell yourself, "Who am I kidding?"

I spend most of my time catching up on classic comedy - things you absolutely have to see.

My parents are both really, really funny, and my little sister is a really good painter, and my other sister is a really good writer.

Arrested Development never felt safe. Even the first season, we did thirteen episodes, and we thought we'd never do a back nine. So I never thought in a million years we'd get to make three seasons. I was happy we got that far. I thought it was really good, and I'm really proud of it. I don't think we made a bad episode.

It's great when you can just focus your whole attention on the music and hear all of the decisions and choices that were made.
