I'm writing a book and working on my one-woman show, Learning To Be Human.

My goal was not to be famous or rich but to be good at what I did. And that required going to New York and studying and working in the theater.

There's no place to act in Kansas. You're supressed.

There's a great difference between being popular and being an artist.

I suppose 'Worried About the Boy' was a brave choice, but only in the sense that if I didn't get it right, my career would be over before it had begun.

I don't want to plan my career. That would be a business plan. Filmmaking is not a business plan.

I'm a stand-up comic. I'm always doing dates; it's just that, if I'm working on a project or I'm busy, I can't get out on the road or book any shows. Since the beginning of my career, I'm usually out for at least 10-15 dates throughout the year. If I have time, then I try to get at least 30-40 dates.

I definitely want to have a career in music.
