It takes intelligence to make real comedy, and it takes a reality base to create all that little stuff I like to do that makes you giggle inside.

I tell people that stand-up's like golf: you gotta do it every day to get it down - or at least three times a week to get it down.

I want to keep working, I want to keep doing my humanitarian stuff around the world, shining light on different places that have problems. Keep making movies, make people laugh.

You loan your friend money. You see them again, they don't say nothin' 'bout the money. 'Hi, how ya doin'? How's ya mama doing?' Man, how's my money doin'?

I really like just super dry comedy.

Half-hour comedy shows are like a play, one night a week.

I don't know what the next frontier is, but good comedy should put its toe into taboo waters. You have to transgress a little bit, and that area shifts with culture and with the year.

Journalism is straying into entertainment. The lines between serious news segments, news entertainment, and news comedy are blurring.
