Peppo! I yelled, pulling at my cousin's suspenders. I really don't want to be arrested, okay? Don't worry! Peppo turned a corner and accelerated as he spoke. I go too fast for police!

We all ought to understand we're on our own. Believing in Santa Claus doesn't do kids any harm for a few years but it isn't smart for them to continue waiting all their lives for him to come down the chimney with something wonderful. Santa Claus and God are cousins.

Improvisation is almost like the retarded cousin in the comedy world. We've been trying forever to get improvisation on TV. It's just like stand-up. It's best when it's just left alone. It doesn't translate always on TV. It's best live.

You'd better not be trying to steal that, she said. The boy shrugged and reached for the small rolling suitcase at her feet. I wouldn't dare. Because I'm an excellent yeller. I don't doubt it. And fighter. My cousin gave me this nail file... the thing's just like a switchblade.
