If you're driving your car and someone winds the window down and gives you the finger and calls you an asshole, instead of giving him the finger back and calling him an asshole back, you just pull a funny face, and he doesn't know how to react to that, because you're using different rules.

A lot of people can be very scared about making themselves vulnerable and appearing uncool. I don't really give a damn; as long as it's funny, I'll do it [make fun of myself].

Actors say they do their own stunts for the integrity of the film but I did them because they looked like a lot of fun.

I don't want to go around making everyone else agree with me. I don't feel the need to do that.

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

All drama teachers are very effusive, very emotionally open, very big, and gesticulate a lot, and are very physical. Those people don't work in banks and they don't work for pharmaceutical companies. They teach drama, or they may be theatre directors. That's why I love people who are openly gay in theatre, because they have license to do what they like, and there's a kind of artistic liberal tolerance thing that goes on.

The great thing is that the funny side of getting old is fuel for my comedy.
