I didn't think I'd ever be an actor.

I have become a giant fan of the testing process, especially with a comedy. I mean, they tell you what's funny. It's almost tailor-made for people who shoot the way we shoot, trying a million different options and versions of things. Because the audience doesn't laugh at a joke, we put in another joke. If they don't laugh at the next joke, we put in another joke. You just keep doing them and you can get the movie to the point where every joke is funny, if you have enough options in the can.

If you ask most high schoolers who Bruce Lee is, they will say that it someone they sit next to in English class.

All my friends are talented enough to get nominated for awards. I just am always surprised when things and people I like are also liked by things like the Oscars.

I knew I just loved comedy, and I think it was my parents who initially brought up the notion of me trying to do stand-up. I think I actually tried writing jokes just at home, just kind of sitting around. But it seemed like a very real way to step into the world of comedy.

Good comedy doesn't have to be a comedy idea.

I'm used to really struggling and facing a hard time to get things going, until I'm comfortable at all with them.
