Comedy is tragedy plus time, but the time is different for everybody.

I will say what I aspire to is a consistency in making films, to direct something every couple of years.

I love pizza so much, I would marry pizza, but it would just be an elaborate ploy to eat her whole family at the reception.

I was made to believe that my life was going to be fixed and it wasn't. I'm still the same loser who had flown to Los Angeles on my sister's frequent flier miles just six days before.

I was an altar boy as a kid. And the answer is no.

I think the reason why I'm so alluring to networks is because on the surface I'm like a quintessential relatable, boring white guy. A great many sitcoms have been anchored by a boring white guy, so I feel like what they want to mine from me are my more generic qualities.

I struggled with that notion early in my career. 'I know this is funny but nobody is laughing.' This thought occurred for years.
