I have never wanted to be famous, as such - fame is a by-product.

All those people who go around saying Life begins at forty, they're notable by their absence. The nerve.

I am of the very last generation who didn't have computers at school. As we grow old we'll become something of an aberration.

Most of all I don't want to be bored. That's why I'd rather do something that has some sort of ambition, that risks failing, rather than make safer, more comfortable choices.

When I was a student I was very, very ambitious, completely immersed in my comedy career. I never had that period of reckless hedonism that you should get out of your system in your youth.

I use improvisation as a writing tool to help produce material that goes into a script, but a well-crafted script shouldn't sound scripted, and oftentimes people confuse something that looks like improvisation for what is actually a very well-written script that is well-acted.

Sadly, I can't say the same for my Father, who is probably in a different place - Hell.
