Quote

Hopefully the person I'm trying to create is just a funny, dour, evil side of myself that has no other way to express itself. I don't model it after anyone in particular. Who would be like that? Who? I wouldn't want to meet that person. I wouldn't want to be interviewed by that person, I can tell you that.

You need to be able to agree from time to time if we're going to get anywhere. Once you have started a civil dialogue, it's a much smoother road to compromise. The key thing to remember is it's a daily practice.

It's weird how you can make people feel comfortable, and then ask them an uncomfortable question, but it doesn't ruin their day.
Samantha Bee
Image
I continue to be very shy. I think a lot of actors and performers are really weird, shy people working it out onstage. I don't know why that is.
Samantha Bee
Image
It's very Canadian of me - or maybe it's more the Catholic schoolgirl in me - but I always really want to do a good job.

The people I really feel sorry for are all the writers out there who wrote these outrageous comedic romps about a grossly unqualified person who goes on to become a Vice Presidential candidate in a hotly contested presidential race. With hilarious results. They must be so bummed.
Samantha Bee
Image
I don't feel like any of the things we're talking about are going to make the world end.

You've got to have gumption. You've got to be willing to stand up on the stage for no money for ten years.
