I mean, I'd like to see (Mitt Romney's) house burn, one of his millions of houses burning down. It would be kind of cool - the Mormon fire patrol.
If you have trouble with finding things you should get into some kind of therapy with a good therapist if you need, I mean I just believe in therapy for everybody. I really do. I don't think any body can escape it.
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.
I'm miserable that you're leaving. I feel like I'm losing a sister.
I started to take myself very seriously in terms of heart disease.
I love a Dustbuster. You go around, pick up little crumbs, and everything is nice again.
You reach a point when you say to yourself, 'Do I want to keep doing this?' There are other things on my plate I want to do - I've been writing a play; I've been neglecting my standup.
Well you know how some people have cancer in their family and some have heart disease. My family was basically heart disease,
My mother had a heart attack when she was about 50. My uncle died of a heart attack at 58. Both of my grandparents on my mother's side died of heart attacks around 60.

I think that comedy is a good defense for a child. Because you know childhood is a nightmare as it is. And so why not use comedy and being funny as a defense to get through your life as opposed to drugs, alcohol and good looks? Because those things are dangerous when your young.
I feel bad for young people. The 20s are a nightmare also. The 20s are hard to do.
I feel like when being raised in New York City I have a particular perspective on things like Gay issues maybe, because I'm in the middle of Manhattan.
You know, I'm a comedian the same as Bill Maher and Jon Stewart. We all came up the same way. The three of us have interest in politics; I call us fundits, we're fundits! We're not pundits!
