My eyes opened, and the first thing I thought of when I could put thoughts together was I want to be in show business. Never wanted anything else. I used to sneak in the costume room at my nursery school and smell the costumes.

I'm a New York girl. I come out of New York theater.
I truly think comedy is - being funny is DNA. My dad was a doctor, a wonderful doctor, and people still come up to me today, 'Your father helped my mother die.' You know what I'm saying? He made her laugh 'til she died. My father was always very funny.
When I am on E! for the 'Fashion Police,' I only care about being a critic. It loses me many friends.
As comedians, we are all laughing because life is so horrible. Life is so difficult, and I cope with it by making jokes about absolutely everything.
I will work as hard as I do because I love it.
My career is as an actress. I am an actress playing a comedienne.
I get butterflies before I go out to say hello at a party.
Reading should be a pleasure, not a chore.
