I love the beginning of Magnolia, the thing about the dealer. That scene is genius. Brilliantly acted.

I would always rather shoot for something unique and fail than do a script because I feel like they're hitting all the right mainstream beats.

I know how my body operates differently from what it did when it was 30 and when it was 20. As unhealthy as I am, I'm weirdly aware of exactly how my body functions.

I don't want to get into extended conversations with people on MySpace, because there are friends I have extended conversations with every day.

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.

I identify myself as a stand-up first. Even though lately there's been an explosion of acting on my schedule.

Knock on wood, my groupies tend to be very artistic, creative people - sometimes way more creative than I am.
