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.

'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 know my face is turning red. I don't want you to interpret it as being embarrassed. It's rage. The color of my face is rage.

My girlfriend and I went to a dinner party the other night and we ended up playing charades. There was another couple there that was deaf. They were so good.

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

The congressmen and senators used to go have a drink in D.C. They would disagree all day long, but they would find that time to sit down and learn about each other personally. I think that's totally wiped out I don't think it really exists anymore.

Yesterday, I masturbated for 45 minutes... with salad tongs.

Four years ago on this very day I tried to take my own life. And I said, Zach, do it in front of your co-workers and end the misery. I don't know how many of you ever tried to jump off of a Pizza Hut, but you'll just get a sprained ankle out of the deal. Then you'll have to go back inside, and serve crazy bread.

You're not supposed to be accepting trophies. You're supposed to be in the back being mad that people are getting trophies.

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

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.

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.

Do you remember that kid that had sex with his high school teacher? I was reading online that he died today. He died from hi-fiveing.

There was a long time where I was an artist in quotes, who had no money. But I guess back then I also never had a girlfriend.

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 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.
