You have to laugh, you have to be able to take criticism.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you have the right voice and the right delivery, you're cocky enough, and you pound down on the punch line, you can say anything and make people laugh maybe three times before they realize you're not telling jokes.
I can take criticisms but not compliments.
I always take criticism as a challenge. It's the way I've always looked at it.
A lot of critics object to what I do, but I got into comedy to make people laugh, and I've always worked hard.
Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance or a stranger.
I know how to make decisions and stand up to the criticism every day.
You can learn a lot from criticism if you can take what's constructive out of it. If you read a review that starts with, 'This person is an idiot; who do they think they are?', you're not going to learn anything from that.
When people criticise you, you've got to listen to that criticism, and to learn from it, which I've tried to do.
I am not too serious about anything. I believe you have to enjoy yourself to get the most out of your ability. I can take the criticism with the accolades. Neither affects me.
You can't instruct an audience to laugh, but what you can do is read well and understand the spirit and subtleties, if there are any, in the dialogue.
