As a young girl, if you do something funny - especially if you're Jewish - someone says, 'Oh, have you seen Gilda Radner?'

I love acting. I'm actually a very emotional actor.

Men aren't actively writing women to oppress them, men are writing what they know. I say you can be much better as a woman for women's rights if you just go up there and write your own material.

When you wrap up your self-worth with your talent, and suddenly you might not be the most talented, that's really scary. And I think that fear is in part why I turned to comedy because I had no expectations of being a comedian. It was exciting to get good at something where I wasn't afraid of not being the best.

Women are very funny. Some of the funniest people I can think of are women.

There is so much more to me than my parts and what I wear, what my clothes are.

If I could create my own utopia, it would be this genderless world where we didn't have to talk about it.
