I learned pretty early is I never defend my material; it's for other people to if someone is offended. It's so subjective, and if you don't find it funny, it's definitely going to be offensive.

Guess what, Martin Luther King? I had a dream, too.

I don't think comedy comes from hotbeds of doing shtick. I think it usually comes from some kind of childhood humiliation or darkness.

You have to be able to laugh at yourself. That's what I tell Asian people all the time.

Being with friends felt like a burden. I remember just sobbing.

I don't want to be a facilitator for other funny people. It doesn't seem smart for me to be in a comedy and not be funny. My spirit can't take it.

I am 39 years old, and I still wake up every morning really excited I don't have to go to school.
