Most of the people I know in comedy are not weird or messed up.

Everything is funny, as long as it's happening to somebody else.

It's nice if people can finally loosen up a little bit and just go out laugh at silliness. I mean, people take themselves way too seriously sometimes.

I'm one of those people who laughs everything off. If I mess up, I just say, 'Ha! Totally didn't mean to do that.'

People often can't separate, or can't understand, that to be funny is to be serious; it's a way of pulling people in and not scaring them off. I think a lot of the funny stuff, underneath it, there's a deep anxiety going on.

Some of the funniest people I know are not screwed up in the head.

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

Everybody's funny in different ways.

Comedians take a neat situation and turn it into a mess. And in my books I do the same thing, but it's the other way around. I like to mess around with mess. A mess is only a mess because someone tells you it is.

I'm not funny in person. I mean I'm really not. I'm one of those people who always screw up anecdotes.
