There have been some hard times, people around me supported me.

I was lucky to have parents and people who believed in me.

So many people supported me through my public life and I will never forget them.

Maybe when I was younger, people didn't always believe in me; they didn't think I would make it to where I am now.

People don't believe in me very much, but I have my teammates and my family that believe in me so much; they see how hard I work.

I came of age believing that, no matter what happened, I would always be able to support myself.

I always believed in myself, and even in the bad times, when I'd do bits of greatness here and there, it was those kinds of things that kept me alive and helped me to get to where I am now.

I believed that I was being forced to sacrifice my family and my career in defense of the Communist Party, from which I had long been separated and which I had grown to dislike and distrust.

I had a massive amount of self-belief when I did stand-up.

My dad, he believed in me. My first year was hard for me. I came to the States with myself, and no one came with me.
