I knew that if I was going to write a book, I was going to have to read one, too.

Cats are unpredictable because they're wild and domestic at the same time. Watching a cat's behavior is like a small window into the wild.

In real life, comedians aren't funny.

I like doing all different types of comedy - stand-up, sketch, movies, TV. I like to try everything.

I'm not sure why I like cats so much. I mean, they're really cute obviously. They are both wild and domestic at the same time.

One of the things that is always difficult about a collaboration is that you don't necessarily find the same thing funny. And so the challenge becomes, how do you tell the other person that you don't think something's funny? The best collaborations tend to be when you are willing to be told that. But there's also ego involved, and so there's a lot of frustration in knowing that you're writing something, and the other person, on some level, needs to think that it's funny.

In my perfect world order, it is cold all the time. Everyone wears sweaters and drinks coffee. People don't speak to each other; they read the newspaper. There is no loud music, and cats are in charge.
