I don't want to deconstruct what I do.

I think that whenever a Jew has any kind of notoriety, good or bad, the Jews find it to be good.

People who follow their religion to the letter of the law are just silly. I mean, I want to tell Hasidic Jews I promise you, God will not mind if you wear a nice cotton blend in the summer.

By the time I would have graduated, at 22, I was a writer and featured performer on Saturday Night Live.

I don't think there is a woman in her 40s who doesn't, kind of, examine herself in the mirror.

I have a ton of Holocaust stuff, and some of it is really hard core.

If I have to write by a certain time, I can pull through, but usually I just let stuff happen, hanging out with comic friends - or bringing a basic idea on stage and seeing if it goes anywhere.
