Sometimes when you're given hurdles, it makes you more creative in the end.

I can never tell when something is funny. I just have to do it onstage and find out.

If you hold back in hurdles, you are going to fall over.

I know I can get laughs anywhere, in front of any crowd, if I'm given the chance.

Baseball players practice, runners practice, so how can you practice being funny? You get up onstage. You train as an improviser, playing make-believe, using the vernacular of improvisation, saying 'yes and' to other people's ideas, making statements.

There is definitely a pressure for funny people to be funny. People want them to perform all the time.

I'm funny when I want to be. And I'm even funny when I don't want to be.

Real talent will get through whatever the obstacles.

I'm always in situations where you can't be funny, and yet I want to do it anyway.
