Stand-up is my foundation. That's where it started at. And I love it because it's personal. It's mine. It's all me. It's my experience in life.

I'm old, and so busy with work, that I like to just stay home and get my sleep now. I try not to burn both ends of the candle.

I don't really take the college tours and all that. Those are young people and I'm quite sure they're mature enough to understand, but they haven't seen or lived real life yet.

I touch on sex in my stand-up and it's funny, because when I talk about sex from an adult point of view, people cringe. But if I talk about war or killing, people laugh. So it's sick. It's really demented.

As a child, I was able to know that I wanted a better life.

Being funny wasn't a career choice growing up, it was my way out of situations; a way to survive another day.

Stand-up don't get no respect - it's the hardest thing to do in show business. You don't have no band and there's no music.
