Having enough money has to go hand in hand with living in a way that you're not being a slave to your possessions.

I look pretty nondescript. I don't go out of my way to... I don't express my personality with my clothes, with my car or my, you know, house. I express with my personality; so as far as what I wear - I don't really care about that.

Is it bad when you refer to all alcohol as "Pain Go Bye-Bye Juice"?

I grew up in such a featureless, personality-less suburb. There was nothing to push against.

I'm grateful that I had that uphill battle for 10 years of going onstage and having nobody know who I was, because you have to win them over.

I'm going to continue to try to strike a balance, because I really, really do love doing stand-up, and I don't see why it should affect the acting. And again, I'm not going, "I've got to become a dramatic actor now." I just want more interesting jobs. I just want to keep doing stuff that's different.

Cheap liquor is a magic potion that can turn you into a puppet cowboy before it kills you.
