I know every time I fly, I get checked twice: they stop me at security, and then, they get me again at the gate. And last time, it was so bad, they actually made me go through the machine with the luggage.

People say, 'Well don't you regret not having kids?' And I go, 'No, not really.' And then if they keep asking, I always say this, 'Well, you know, maybe I'll adopt.' But I don't mean that. It's just something I say to make me sound like a nicer person.

Now, I think the people who are still doing stand-up are doing it because they love stand-up.

I always want to go back and do stand-up; I like the freedom.

The first time onstage, a light went on. 'OK, this is my thing. I'm comfortable here. This is my thing.'

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.

If you feel like there's something out there that you're supposed to be doing, if you have a passion for it, then stop wishing and just do it.
