When you're onstage, it's important to try and feel some type of therapy in getting the material out, because then you don't leave the stage so tired. If you're onstage and you're doing the same routine over and over, then it gets monotonous. You want to be able to try to get to the truth constantly, and I think the more you do that, the easier it is.

My mom and dad are both in stand-up comedy, so that's where I started, that's where I got everything. My roots are holding the mic.

I want to show all sides of myself. I mean, I don't want to howl at the moon my whole life, you know?

I was one of the first veejays to take the camera out on location, and that's what was unique about MTV at that time.

Comedy wasn't something I chose - it chose me.

When you're a kid, all you really care about are Slurpees and Slip N Slide and riding your bike, and that's what I did.

People should stop poking fun at other people and worry about themselves. The reality is that my movies all have made money.
