I really think if you take away a character's obstacles then there's no comedy.

I'm not opposed to putting myself in danger for meaningless comedy.

If I tried to do comedy for the rest of my career, I would not be very successful.

You cannot have the drama without comedy.

The only way to survive is to have a sense of humour.

I thought comedy would be the hardest thing I could do, and if I could do that, I could do anything.

Comedy often comes at the expense of others, and to do that smartly, you don't want to make fun of vulnerable people. You want to make fun of people in power, and so you need to really understand the dynamics of power.

With comedy, you really want to work things out beforehand.

Comedy can be a little brutal, but not in a satisfying way.
