I think my mom recognized that I liked people to be happy. I like people to get along. And I like to be a peacemaker. And I liked the church. So she was like, 'You should be a youth pastor.'

I wanted to be a pastor. I was going to be a youth pastor. I mean, I play guitar; I like to make people laugh.

My mom wanted me to be a youth pastor, and when I became a comedian, she said it was close enough.

I am a comedian. My brain is critical - it's overthinking - but you can find ways to turn it down and realize that's not who you really are.

I'm Mr. Romance.

I love 'I'm British But...' It's such a sweet, innocent, open-hearted film, and it has the sort of openness that I still aspire to with everything I do. It wears its heart, head, everything on its sleeve.

My mother, whose interest in chemistry was rather minimal, nevertheless went to graduate school in the subject and married my father, for whom it was as important as life itself.

I do think about marriage, but it's not the end-all goal.
