There's something about being a parent that has, I think, made me a better comedian.

Even though my father was a radio comedian, it wasn't cool to say, at a young age, 'I want to be a comedian.'

I wasn't funny as a kid. I remember enjoying comedians, but I never understood it was a job choice or a profession.

The problem with me, as far as getting married and having a family, is that my comedy is so important to me. So I don't know if I'll ever be as good a dad as my dad.

I've always been a good mother, but I've always been in show business, and I've been on stage, and I don't bake cookies and I don't stay home.

I'm not a comedian, I'm an actor.

As a family comedian, it is so wonderful seeing everyone from kids through to grandparents being entertained by you.

When you're the mom in a big family comedy, you have to get your personality when you can.

Part of being a comedian is that it's your job to look at life and regurgitate it in a funny way, to point out its absurdities.
