I could never learn what I'm learning at college. They don't teach it there, because it can't be learned in that way.

I was 36, and I had decided to quit acting because it was so disappointing.

I could never learn what I'm learning at college. They don't teach it there, because it can't be learned in that way.

It's been five years worth of planning and negotiating to bring this to a reality.

I could do John Wayne, Jack Benny, Jack Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and entertain my friends. But I never seriously considered it as a career choice.

The one thing I could do was voices and impersonations and weird characters, and there was really no call for that, except on Saturday Night Live.

As an actor, I felt I couldn't compete. I wasn't as cute as the leading man; I wasn't as brilliant as Robin Williams.
