When in doubt, tell the truth.

Always do right. This will gratify some people, and astonish the rest.

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.

If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything.

I don't think so much about verbal comedy. I always think about visual comedy. I was raised watching silents, and I'm always thinking about how to make cinema, not good talking - although I want good talking. I'm much more interested in framing, composition, and orchestration of bodies in space, and so forth.

I think it's probably much easier to do political comedy from a two-party point of view, in that the majority have some sense of what it means to be one or the other.

I think, from a really early age, I just wanted to be an actress. And I ended up doing comedy because it was the thing that kind of, like, came out of my nature the most easily. But, I've always wanted to do as many different kinds of performances - whatever I could.

The best comedy is where you attack the strong, not the weak.
