I have to stop crying when I watch The View. It's not because of the topics at hand, I just feel sorry for that couch.

When I do stand-up for a long time, I'll get burned out, then I'll get an acting gig. For me, the grass is always greener. I'd like to do a mixture of all of it. My goal is just to do small movies that I've written. That's what I'm trying to do now, just write smaller movies.

I don't like cursing in movies. I feel like cursing has become the new hackiness. You try to find substitutions for cursing.

It's not good for comedy to be like, 'Thanks for liking me'. Being popular is poison.

I kind of put myself out there as is. I'm a quiet person. I don't know if that's surprising. I'm a Pilates junkie.

'Baskets' isn't a CBS show. Nothing against that, but this is an off-kilter show on cable that the channel lets you do interesting things. Look, if it works, it works. And if it doesn't, it's just a miniseries.

My headshot is a scratch and sniff, it smells like failure and onions.

I do whatever comes my way. But I get burned out on stage. It's a lonely world. I think part of the romanticism about being on the road is you get to meet a lot of - my mom once told me, You've probably got a woman at every port. Like I'm a pirate. Obviously she doesn't know her son that well.

I just try to keep myself a traditionalist. I liked being an underground comic doing my thing. I want to maintain that. I just do.

That's one of the great things about comedy: we can - and should - say the things that other people aren't supposed to say. If we didn't do that, if we didn't push against those limits, we'd just be standing around onstage and yelling.

I like to read the bible in public places where people are watching me read it. And I like to mumur out to myself: 'Bullshit!'

I dream of moving to India, or Pakistan, and becoming a cabdriver.

When I was in high school I used to sit by myself in the cafeteria - not necessarily by choice - but I thought it was funny to talk to people that weren't there.

I've been happily dedicated to the same woman for a number of years. I never even look at other women.

When a role seems fun it's easy to play. It kind of comes organically.

I think comedy is a really, really good tool for trying to say something.

You write things that are of interest to you. There's no focus group.

I wish I could sit back and say, 'Oh, I'm gonna wait for a Merchant-Ivory film to come my way. Or Ivory-Merchant. Whatever it's called. But you just take what's given and then, hopefully, down the road you can be more choosy and only do, say, Wayans brothers movies. That's my goal: to be more Merchant-Ivory-Wayans.

I find anger to be funny. I find people that are so wrapped up in their own personalities to be funny, and lost. Like myself in real life.
