But if you put a script up in front of me to read, or a cue card, I couldn't do it without stuttering.

When I started on 'Saturday Night Live,' I had the choice of wearing contact lenses, which I had never worn before, or glasses, in order to be able to read the cue cards.

It's such a relief for me to sit in front of a tape recorder and not be using it to learn my lines.

I have my cards read every time I pass a tarot-reader booth. I would be so embarrassed to have one of those 900 numbers appear on my phone bill, because I don't know how I would explain it to my business manager. It would almost be like saying, 'Okay, I'm white trash.'

I can't read a note of music. I just do it all from ear.

I read actual physical books and have thus far avoided the electronic lure.

I'm a very slow reader.

I don't work well outside the lines; my report card once read, 'doesn't play well with others.'
