I can't pretend that I'm a great student of the art of comedy because anybody that becomes philosophical about humour doesn't know what he's talking about.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You can't study comedy; it's within you. It's a personality. My humor is an attitude.
There's something very authentic about humor, when you think about it. Anybody can pretend to be serious. But you can't pretend to be funny.
To be a comedian, you gotta jokesmith, there's no way around it.
I think comedy's something you can't learn. It's an instinct, which makes it rather elusive.
I think great humor lies in playing the truth of a situation. I see myself as a performer and that applies to a Greek drama or a modern comedy.
I don't consider myself a comedian because I don't really concern myself too much with jokes.
I don't think I'm a funny person in general. I have had to learn comedy.
I don't think comedy is something you learn. I think it's something that's either there or it's not.
I'm not a comedian. I'm an actor who just happens to be funny on occasion.
Comedy is not something that a person can fake or learn how to do.
