Ive been blessed to have a long career.

I try to encourage people to really love what they do, like when it's about being a part of this business [entertaining], love what you do because it's not going to always be defined by who you are. It's going to be a lot of times your good name walks in the door before you do.

It is a big world that we live in, and people have a choice to love who they love.

Politics move, as fast as Twitter, and for everyone to think that in four years America was going to be perfect is ridiculous.

I love stand up and it keeps me grounded, to say the stuff I have been thinking without anyone changing it.

We as comics do want an immediate response from the audience. It's really quiet on the set, and there are only the producers, and the director, so a comic is looking for someone to give a reaction, even if it is the camera guy.

I want to be a little more dramatic nowadays. I definitely want something big and funny, but I look for things that can just have people see me in a different light and let me mature as both an entertainer and an actor and a comedian.
