If I wanted to take a more activist or journalistic slant in work, I should probably just go be an activist or a journalist. But I'm happy being a comedian.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Remember, folks, I am a comedian, not a journalist.
Oh yeah, I'd love to be a comedian. I've done a lot, but always in the confines of plays.
I'm not a political comedian. That's just not what I do.
I wanted to be a comedian, and this is what I'm doing. If I can keep this going, I'm happy.
I'm a comedian at the beginning and the end of the day. I'm not affiliated with any campaign, nor do I generally find politics interesting enough to plan to be involved.
I always wanted to be a comedian, but I wasn't sure how you do that.
You have two choices, two paths to take as a comedian. You can tackle the difficult subjects and be harsh about it, be brash, be abrasive. But adding hatred to racism is not going to help everybody. So I like to have fun around it.
I would probably be a teacher if I weren't a comedian.
I don't want to spend all my time working as an activist. I don't get satisfaction out of it. I'd rather be doing something else. I'm a musician.
It never dawned on me that I had the option of becoming a comedian. I come from a little dirt street town in northwest Texas, and they really don't talk about the arts there much on career day.
