I tell a lot of young performers, 'Go get in trouble. Go commit yourself to something you're not sure you can do.' And I followed my own advice.

No matter how you were born, no matter how you identify, I want to be clear that I would be proud to grind you up and eat you.

Usually when Donald Trump wants to keep someone out of military service, he just fakes a doctor's note saying he has a foot injury. It worked fine for him during Vietnam.

I believe Sarah Palin is a true statesman, whose experience as a failed vice presidential candidate, half-term governor and eight-episode reality star has fully prepared her to take control of our nuclear arsenal.

For me, improvisation is about working with a partner. That is much easier to do in the interview, because you have a sounding board.

I spent my first two years at a small all-male college in Virginia called Hampden-Sydney. That was like going to college 120 years ago. The languages, a year of rhetoric, all of the great books, Western Man courses, stuff like that.

If I'm doing a talk show or an interview, or pretty much anything where I can't control the context, I'm loath to do the character.
