I don't need a diet pill. I need something that gives you an electric shock when you reach for food.
Have four things going. I have stand-up comedy, two television shows and I'm working on a play. I like to work, and I fear that something could fall through. You know what they say: 'The show must go off.
I'm interested in so many different things and I'd like to cover a lot of territory. I'm trying to see my show as the Sunday 'Times.' You have the Arts & Leisure section, you have the Op-Ed page, you have the Book Review... even the Style section has those wonderful essays about relationships.
A better thing to grow up with is to be funny I think, and if I had, if I had my choice I would still pick that.
Madeleine Albright, when you see her, she's not a beautiful woman and she's getting older. But you're saying that woman has gravitas. She knows what she's talking about.
Everyone thinks I'm Jewish. I'm not. Last year I got a call: "Happy Hanukkah." I said "Ma, I'm not Jewish.
Republican Party hasn't been black friendly over the many centuries in this country.
Comedians usually are rooting for the underdog. I mean to take a shot at an underdog I think is really stupid and low and not funny.
Statistically, skinny women die younger than fat women. Why? Because fat women are killing them.
I don't get jealous of people. Jealousy is such a waste of time because you're jealous of them, and they go about their lives and have a wonderful time, so what's the point?
I keep my stand-up comedy notes in a pile on my desk. I don't organize my act. I keep myself in a state of confusion. It stresses me out, but I prefer creative chaos.
I'm miserable that you're leaving. I feel like I'm losing a sister.
