Quote

I think sharing experience makes everything better. When people get talking about how they've overcome something or how they haven't, it's nourishing.

We live in an age where people are like, I'd love to catch up. Maybe text me later? But don't call because I don't really listen to my messages. But if you text me... We've displaced interaction into sound bites and untethered phrases and sentences that come up on the phone as Twitter feed.

I think most other comics are like, 'I'm going to do my fkin' act and that'll be that.' With me, it's like, 'What if I forget my jokes? What if I can't pull it together? This is going to be a fking disaster!'

I seem to offend everybody. I just never got into the universe. I don't seem to have a tremendous amount of discipline or patience with having to follow a story that is really multi-leveled and science-fiction.

It amazes me that we are all on Twitter and Facebook. By we I mean adults. We're adults, right? But emotionally we're a culture of seven-year-olds. Have you ever had that moment when are you updating your status and you realize that every status update is just a variation on a single request: Would someone please acknowledge me?

Let's be honest, this is a consumer based economy in America. That's all we manufacture here is need and appetite. We are the world's mouth. They make things in other countries, and they're like, 'Send it to America they'll eat it.'

In show business, it takes 10 years to create an overnight success. You've heard that, right? But what you don't hear is that that's the exact same amount of time it takes to create a bitter failure.

I'm just looking for authentic engagement of some kind, and usually, after an hour or more, you get that. Some people talk at you. Some people just want to answer questions, but a lot of times, all of a sudden you drift away, and you don't remember you're on the mic, and you're in something real.

I don't make a list of questions. Ever. I think a lot of my interviews are driven by my need to feel connection.
