I think comedians have a function in society, which is to make fun of our icons.

Comedians get jokes offered to them, rock stars get women and underwear thrown onstage, and I get guys that want to take me fishing.

Anybody with a sharp brain and a mic can become a comedian, but there's a need to move beyond it. The audience wants to witness the marriage of theatre, comedy and something more.

The greatest thing about being a comedian is knowing other comedians. And you get to talk to them. Its the most fun.

Professional comedians, surprisingly, have a lack of humor. They're insensitive to the insanity of our times.

I'm not a comedian. I'm an actor who just happens to be funny on occasion.

When you see a crowd of people jumping up and down at a pop concert, all gloriously in the moment, I don't think you'll ever see a comedian there. They'll all be standing at the sides, looking at how it all fits together.

I'm not a comedian, I'm not a stand-up and I don't come from a comedy background. I am an actor, but I've had a very fortunate foray into comedy, and it seems to have become a bit of a strength, and you can't complain when you become known for something.
