The fun part for me is to just really push that envelope.

I like pushing the envelope. I like pushing myself and the audience, whether it's a TV show or live. I like to throw people over the edge of the cliff and scare the wits out of them, but then pull them back and make them safe.

I pushed the envelope as far as it needed to be pushed, and now it's on the floor, and people seem to want it to stay there.

People who know me know I have a sense of humor that can really push the envelope.

I like to push people till I get the truth out of them.

Letters are expectation packaged in an envelope.
