I just wanted to be in show business. I didn't care if I was going to be an actor or a magician or what. Comedy was a point of the least resistance, really. And on the simplest level, I loved comedy.

Talent is the ability to say things well, but genius is the ability to, well, say things.

The conscious mind is the editor, and the subconscious mind is the writer.

I was raised with "Laurel and Hardy" and "I Love Lucy" and Jerry Lewis, and I just loved it. And I had a friend in high school and we would just laugh all day and put on skits. You know, it's the Andy Kaufman thing or the Marty Short thing where you're performing in your bedroom for yourself.

Always...no wait...never.

Acting is collaborative because you are working with another actor, and it's almost like a two-man juggling team. You have to really be in sync.

Or is it that I think too much?
