I think that comedy is one of the more serious things that you can do in our day, especially in the world that we're living in.

I value comedy. I value somebody who can be funny.

I think in life, the sense of humor and comedy always exists.

I think one of the perks of getting to do comedy is the ability to hang out with the funniest people in the world.

Comedy arises out of necessity, because some things are so dark that you have to laugh about it.

I am a passionate believer that comedy is a way of tackling some of the most dark and difficult aspects of being a human being.

I think any decent comedy worth its salt has to have heart, otherwise it's just a bunch of jokes. I think people enjoy comedies that have a heart and soul to them.

For me, comedy is richer and larger than anything else.

And regardless of the fact that in this country, certainly in the arts, we treat comedy as a second-class citizen, I've never thought of it that way. I've always thought it to be important. The last time I looked, the Greeks were holding up two masks. I've always thought of it not only as having equal value, but as the craft of it, being funny.
