More quotes by Nick Kroll
Seinfeld has his way of telling jokes - and I'm not comparing myself to Seinfeld, his genius is observing the small details of everyday life and finding humor in it.
Nick Kroll
In general in comedy, there are fewer people making a ton of money and a lot more people making a living. For me, the goal is just being able to make exactly the show I wanted to make.
Nick Kroll
I think my goal was just to do comedy, honestly. It still is. Whatever form that took or takes, it doesn't matter.
Nick Kroll
My experience in TV is that it takes time for shows to find their way.

The more you're able to understand how to do a good dramatic performance, that can inform your comedy. It all informs one another. And it keeps everything interesting.

You think you're going to be on TV a year out of college and you're not. Then you tell people and it's embarrassing. And then it's not a big deal at all.
Nick Kroll
As long as it's not an easy, outdated stereotype and it comes from an interesting or emotionally driven place, then anyone can be made fun of.

Music was not a big deal to me when I was in middle school. And then I slowly became a big jazz fan. Even more than concerts, a lot of my high school time was spent going to jazz clubs in the city.
Nick Kroll
My first concert isn't that cool or ironic. I wish it had been like, My first concert was the Backstreet Boys, but the first concert I went to, I think, was this band called The Samples.

I gave the graduation speech at my high school. Not because I was valedictorian but because the grade voted for me to do it. And I gave a slightly contentious speech. I was a little critical of the administration. But for a long time it said on Wikipedia that I took my balls out and exposed myself to the crowd.

In L.A., you really are in your car all day alone, and there's very little public life.
Nick Kroll
I tend to play sort of douchey.
Nick Kroll
There's nothing better for hosting a show than a bunch of people daytime-whiskey drunk.
Nick Kroll
Contrary to widespread belief, I do know something about science.
Nick Kroll
The immediacy of public interaction is just unbeatable.
Nick Kroll
I guess there should be somewhere on the Internet that feels like a source of sacred truth. But Wikipedia sure isn't it.

It was sort of in the jam-band era and it was at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester [New York], right where I grew up. I actually went back there a couple years ago when I was on tour for Kroll Show. I performed at that theater, which was really cool to go back to the first place I'd gone to a concert.

The thing that's the biggest bummer about any live show is a hot, sober room. So if it's during the day and people are a little buzzed, great.

I think Trump thinks of himself as pretty important, and now rightfully so - because he's the President of the United States. You gotta dream big, and we're all so proud of what the Donald has been able to accomplish... following through on his dreams of taking fast food dumps on a plane.
Nick Kroll
For me, the goal wasn't to turn the stand-up special on its head, but to do what I do specifically, and hopefully that reads as something new.
