Most comedians come from a dark past and have a lot of sadness.

You can make the audience laugh, be funny and sad at the same time.

I've got wonderful people I get to work with, and I'm trying to focus on that, instead of worrying about, Aw, who doesn't want to work with me? You focus on the ones who do.

You really get a feeling, when you're reading scripts, pretty quickly. Within 20 or 25 pages, you can get a sense of the part. I always think about whether I'm right for it and whether I can do it. If I don't think I'm right for it, it should go to somebody else.

I'm healthy, I have beautiful children and a beautiful life. I don't want to go toward negative stuff because I'm scared.

I think people pick up on that. You use personal stuff and mix it all in - I definitely pull on that stuff in my acting.

In real life, my son had a little injury a couple of years ago where we had moved into a new house and he put his hand through a glass window and it cut him really badly. Thank god he had surgery and repaired everything, but I remember I felt frozen I was so scared, and then I realized I was holding my hand just because his hand was hurt.
