I like to be sad once in a while. You need it for your equilibrium.

I don't really do sad, depressing songs.

I'm trying to make sure that there's comedy as well as sadness. It makes the sadness more memorable.

I connect to SpongeBob in a way; like, that's the homie. He can chill on the corner with me.

There are times when I'm really happy and I write something really sad, and vice versa.

I just finished an episode of a new show called 'Century City.' It's like 'Law & Order' set in the future, and I have a very dramatic role in that. I have to sob and weep and wail. It was very hard. When it was done, I was like, 'OK, time to watch 'SpongeBob!'

Usually, I'm only sad when something sad happens. I am not a melancholic person. I like to live very much in the present. If I was an animal, I'd be a little cat. They like to live life.

I think a good dollop of sadness is quite a useful thing in comedy sometimes. I think if everyone's happy all the time, it's a bit dull. It's like salt and caramel - you wouldn't imagine they would go well together, but they do.
