That word sassy - it haunts me. I keep getting the sassy thing.

I always had one goal, and that was to be a real funny stand-up comic, and that's pretty much what I'm doing. And everything else is kind of like gravy - TV, movies.

I don't like the saying keep your friends close and enemies closer. I want my enemy on a different planet.

I'm going to leave The Wanda Sykes Show and try to get her job because $5 million ain't too bad!

I felt like I was being attacked, personally attacked - our community was attacked. Now, I gotta get in their face. I'm proud to be a woman. I'm proud to be a black woman. And I'm proud to be gay.

I'm a comedian so I'm not waiting around for someone to write a part for me. I don't have to wait for somebody else to create my next job; I have the ability to basically write my own ticket.

In '87, I used to do this awful, awful James Brown impression.
