A Friend Of Mine Once

Knowing About Comedy Has Helped Me With The Drama. To See People Laugh, It's Like There Are Moments Of Catharsis In The Middle Of Sadness.

The Important Thing Is Not To Be Defined By What Others Think Of You.

Look At The 18th Century. There Was A Lot More Freedom Going On.

I've Met People Who've Dismissed Me, And Then They Find Out That They Like My Work, And Suddenly Their Attitude Changes Toward Me. And I Think That's Very Funny And Very Human. But It's Also Very Unattractive.

Comedy Can Be Silly And Gross And Offensive, As Long As There's Sort Of A Point. You Can Make A Joke That, On The Face Of It, Is Racist. Ostensibly Someone Can Appear To Be Racist, But If You Know You're Making A Point About Race, And Not Just Being Pig-headed, Then You Can Do That. I Think Some People Who Don't Understand Comedy Will Have A Knee-jerk Reaction To Some Stuff, And Will Always Be Offended By It Because They Don't Understand It. Some People React To It In A Vociferous Way, Which Is Unsophisticated, But There's Always Going To Be Those People Out There.
