When I play myself, I want to be a slightly better person. It just agrees. Everything I play about myself is kind of true, but it's amplified. We all edit, don't we? If you're self-aware, you stop yourself - you know how to behave properly.

I always find it easier to portray myself as being unlikeable and idiotic; to actually play a character that is likeable and engages the audience is far more difficult. It's a more subtle kind of challenge.

Hacking into a victim of crime's phone is a sort of poetically elegant manifestation of a modus operandi the tabloids have.

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

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

People regurgitate the same old cliches and it becomes like a photocopy of a photocopy of something that's vaguely interesting.

I've always been drawn to discomfort and that limbo of unease you get between comedy and tragedy.
