We are at this weird moment where there's an economic model that supports creativity. People are demanding something new and fresh.

I still feel like a weird kid who is about to take a punch in the face. So, I think it's permanent.

The thing that ruined your life makes you good at your work. And then you get rewarded at work, so you don't bother to fix it in your life.

I like working with people on their first movies. I think that you never get that level of effort again. And I think that most people only have a couple of amazing stories from their lives, so you're getting the best of them.

I think that everything I do tends to root for the underdog.

When the entire country was watching one show there was a major discussion happening is it possible for that to happen in a 1 million channel universe?

I worshipped guys like Bill Maher, Jay Leno, and Jerry Seinfeld, and was doing my variation of that. But as a young person with no political point of view or life experience, it was as funny as you can imagine.

I don't want to be ordinary. I'm willing to do the work. I'm willing to suffer the indignities of comedy because I want to be great. I don't want to just be good. I want to be great.

I was in the recording studio when Pink was recording for a part of the gay rights anthem. It was just amazing to watch her perform. She's just such an incredible singer. She so funny, and so smart, yet she's doing it for this silly, silly song.

I remember the Time review [on the Hit and Run]said that there wasn't one laugh in it. And I had watched the movie 50 times with audiences, and it always played great. There was certainly a moment where you could tell the audience was like, Wow, this is really getting weird.

There's something so scary about trying out new material and being completely comfortable jumping into the abyss with a comedic idea.

I think people like Lena Dunham really opened up the door to what was possible, and they've inspired young women to go into filmmaking and writing and directing and acting in a way that maybe they didn't before, because now there is a path and there are jobs.

I don't think it matters what the frequency is of me writing or directing a movie. It doesn't really matter to anybody else. I'm just trying to put good things out there.

It's what I always dreamed of: that you can make TV and everyone would get out of your way and you follow your vision without watering it down.

I started a radio show where I interviewed comics. And I interviewed Leno and Seinfeld and John Candy and Father Guido Sarducci and Garry Shandling, all when I was 16. And they kind of told me what to do.

I always thought that Seth [Rogen] was a fun, caustic, bombastic, sweet, underdog-type of person that I would root for the way you used to root for Bill Murray or John Candy in Stripes. Seth had something that very few people you encounter have: he had a writer's mind and he had his own comic point of view.

I often say that ... I'm just involved in comedy, so I can be around it.

You should look up some of the reviews. The New York Times review is so over-the-top funny. It's hysterical. You should dig it out.
