I usually get freaked out if I'm in a situation where a lot of people recognise me at once.

I had a magic kit. I never really followed through on it, but I had my phase of wanting to do it, sure.

I've always loved comedy and growing up it was the comedies that I really responded to. So I don't know how it turned out that once I started acting that I started getting a certain kind of role, that I never saw myself as growing up, so I really love when I get an opportunity to play a [comedian] role.

I don't blame any director for wanting to do something more commercial. That's all part of the business. I certainly have done it, as an actor.

I could never have imagined the films I've done and the people I've worked with when I was starting out; I certainly did not have a career path.

I can't relate to 99% of humanity.

I talked with Quentin about where the character came from, and he told me Kansas City. I don't know how somebody talks from Kansas City, so I made him from New York.
