Quote

I wanted to be a comedian.

I always wanted to be a popular comedian.

I just wanted to be in show business. I didn't care if I was going to be an actor or a magician or what. Comedy was a point of the least resistance, really. And on the simplest level, I loved comedy.

I didn't really want to be a comedian.

You have to understand how bad I wanted to be a comedian, how much I loved doing it. I still can't believe I get to do this for a living and have people come up and want to see me.

To tell you the truth, I always wanted to be a sketch comedian and a comedy actor.

I wanted to make a living, but I really was not interested in money at all. I was interested in being a great comedian.

Oh yeah, I'd love to be a comedian. I've done a lot, but always in the confines of plays.

I always wanted to be a comedian, but I wasn't sure how you do that.

The truth is, I had always wanted to be a comedian, but I really didn't have that kind of personality, and it's a terrifying thing to say.
