People always think you have a lot of money when they see you on TV.
From Judy Gold
I've done stand-up since I was 18 years old, and I absolutely love it, but I used to go onstage, and the audience was my peers. Now I go onstage, and I could be their mother.
Women are taught that if you want to be a lady, keep your opinions to yourself and be polite.
Comedy is all about having a point of view, and it's also about power.
There is no reason to be ashamed of who you are.
When you see another tall woman on the street, you nod, sort of like Orthodox Jews.
When I was a kid, I'd read about celebrities who didn't want to talk to their fans after a show. I told myself, 'That's terrible, and I would never do that.'
As scary as it was being raised by one Jewish mother, I have to feel for my kids because they have two Jewish mothers.
If I was married to a man, and I had the same life situation that I have, it's the perfect recipe for a sitcom.
I live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. I live in a 950-square-foot apartment with one bathroom and two sons.
