Shuffling really isn't something you should be doing on your deathbed.

Any time I am involved in something from conception to execution, that's obviously a lot more personal, and I'm going to be more invested in it than something where I just show up for a couple days, shoot, and leave.

I feel no obligation to teach my readers anything, to impart any sort of wisdom, to teach any sort of lesson, to instill any sort of morality. All I'm trying to do is make them and their parents laugh.

All my friends were girls. Then my mom's strident feminism for years where men were thought of as the enemy, I just didn't know what the right way to be a man was.

I think people just love to win.

The things I care about are the most pedestrian things in the world. I care about good ice cream and being a good dad and a decent husband.

I don't watch that much comedy. I think it's professional jealousy. That and a lack of support for my community.
