I've never looked ahead very much in my life. I've never had any grand plan from the outset. I had no burning ambition to do what I do

My mum would like to see me on the cover of 'Good Housekeeping' demonstrating children's toys with some nice lipstick on.

I loved the late Gilda Radner. I love Carol Burnett and Lily Tomlin.

I've always had to create my own markets and I've always been at a juncture in my career.

I just love to impersonate people, and I impersonate people because I find them fascinating.

I hope I never get so hard up I have to do advertisements. I've gotten ridiculous offers.

It's the poignancy and sadness in things that gets to me.
