I don't like doing the same material over and over again. It's not fun.

I'm proud to be a woman. I'm proud to be a black woman, and I'm proud to be gay.

A woman would pitch a joke. Nothing. Then a guy would pitch it and everybody would laugh.

But sometimes the women writers will pitch something and I'll hear it, but the men will keep talking.

If you have a passion for it, then stop wishing and just do it.

Should I talk about [having breast cancer]? Because how many things could I have? You know black, lesbian - I'm like, I can't be the poster child for everything. At least with the LGBT issues we get a parade and a float and it's a party.

There's times when I'm really shy, so these roles that I get to play, they're how I would love to really be. And that's why I love doing stand-up, because it gives me the freedom to say what I really want to say. I think that's why it's my favorite thing to do.
