I am lucky to be in a profession that is not age dependent.

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.

Big comedy is good, I like things that are big, but good comedy has to be truthful I think and has to reflect some sort of reality.

No one has a monopoly on wisdom, and even for people who aren't religious, you can learn things from religious people.

I want my work to be judged, not me.

I love Sherlock Holmes. I've got all his books, leather-bound. What I thought was great about Sherlock Holmes was that not only was he a supersleuth, he was also a hard worker. Not only did he go out and solve the crimes, he came home and wrote it all down. Fantastic. That's why I admire him.

The trick is always to write in pairs because if at least two people find it funny, you've immediately halved the odds of it not being funny.
