If you don't think you're funny, no one else will.
animal laughing comedy
Comedy exists to laugh at things that aren't laughable. But isn't it? That's what separates us from the animals. We laugh.

I think anyone who's perfectly happy isn't particularly funny. And when you're very, very happy, you're not very funny. You're just happy. I'd rather be damaged and funny.
business thinking looks
I think I'm in a business where you have to look good, and it's totally youth-oriented.

I'll lie still for a lot of things - but sex isn't one of them.

Life is so tough. I don't know how old you are, but I've seen so much in a wink. One phone call and your life is changed forever. We all know that. You better laugh at everything.

I was not an attractive child.
