“Ever since I was a kid, I just loved those comedians on TV who would just have fun with the language.”

You know, sometimes I feel like I walk around with a target on my back with the films I make.

Everything’s a film idea if this is what you do.I’ve always been secretly confident that I’d never run out of ideas,because I’ve never had any.

Well, visual language is another boring discussion about the nature of film.

I’m me, I live from film to mouth.

You learn real early to make a film and then duck, and basically that’s how I go about it.

You know, our sense of individuality is just the number one target of civilization.

Anyway, I just haven’t been able to find any humanity in any Republican candidate ever in my entire life.

It’s part of the general global hypnotism to accept lies as the new truth.

Human identity is the most fragile thing that we have, and it’s often only found in moments of truth.

I just live my life, see things theway I do, and I’m just looking for a notion to hang it all on.

Nick plays a corrupt politician, which is kind of a redundant statement.

It’s always been my formula to get the next picture set up before anyone’s seen the last one.

So one of the most unique things on screen in American movies today is everyday behavior.

That’s why that show, no matter who hosts it, it really should be a fast-thinking comedian who is really quick on their feet that can handle situations that happen, or somebody with that kind of mentality that can capitalize on something.

Once or twice I’ve been described as a light comedian. I consider this the most accurate description of my abilities I’ve ever seen.

I’m friends with a lot of comedians, but we don’t talk about material. Most comedians I know don’t watch a lot of other comedy.

I wasn’t the good looking guy, I wasn’t the hot chick, I wasn’t the fat guy, I didn’t have a catchphrase, I didn’t wear a silly hat. I was just trying to improve as a comedian.

Being a comedian is an incredible thing, but it can be scary sometimes.

There is a very difficult period in a comedian’s career – it’s that window of time where you’re good enough to draw tickets but nobody knows you yet.

They proved that if you quit smoking, it will prolong your life. What they haven’t proved is that a prolonged life is a good thing. I haven’t seen the stats on that yet.

You have to understand how bad I wanted to be a comedian, how much I loved doing it. I still can’t believe I get to do this for a living and have people come up and want to see me.
