beautiful believer bit classics great hear love polish robert takes time
I'm a big believer than a great bit is a great bit - if I go and see someone I love, like Robert Klein. I want to hear some classics and some new stuff. But a great stand-up bit takes a long time to really polish and perfect, and they're beautiful things when they're done.
love people
I do a little thing about the way people shake the sweetener packet. You know, like they're all excited. I want to get all the granules down to one end. I love all these rituals.
craft love people seem suffer
I kind of thought that stand-up comedy would suffer from the Internet because people seem to know more about the craft of stand-up than ever before. I thought it would seem trite. Kind of like if you know more about magicians, you wouldn't love them.
couple frustrated good holds love mess point
You want to do good things, and once you've done a couple of good things in a row, you think 'Well gee, let's not mess this up.' But I am lucky at this point that I have something I really love to do, and it completely holds my attention. I never feel frustrated by it.
funny-love commitment thinking
Why is commitment such a big problem for a man? I think that for some reason when a man is driving down that freeway of love, the woman he's with is like an exit, but he doesn't want to get off there. He wants to keep driving. And the woman is like, "Look, gas, food, lodging, that's our exit, that's everything we need to be happy... Get off here, now!" But the man is focusing on the sign underneath that says, "Next exit 27 miles," and he thinks, "I can make it."
love-is space magazines
Magazines are another medium I love, because 95% is simply based on 'How the hell are we going to fill all this blank space?
falling-in-love cereal attention
Pay attention, don't let life go by you. Fall in love with the back of your cereal box.
love funny marriage
Being a good husband is like being a good stand-up comic - you need ten years before you can even call yourself a beginner.
dad love-is being-a-dad
I love being a dad. I just love it.
love relationship moving
Marriage is like a game of chess except the board is flowing water, the pieces are made of smoke and no move you make will have any effect on the outcome.
enjoy interest love takes time
It takes up enough of my time and interest just working on comedy. I just enjoy it and love doing it.
experience
If you get something right, you really feel it, right in your chest, on stage. I think it's an incomparable experience.
angry annoying discussing essence types wife
Crankiness is at the essence of all comedy. My wife and I were discussing the different types of cranky. There's entertaining cranky, annoying cranky, angry cranky.
If you're a surfer, you just want to surf. You don't know if anyone's going to see you, and you don't really care if they see you. You just live for that feeling.
