I would love to get married, first of all, from my children's perspective. People don't think of children when they think of gay marriage, but I do have children, and for them to see their family validated as other families are validated and protected by our government, yes.
Mother humor is such a universal theme. I wrote a show called '25 Questions for a Jewish Mother.' I had people coming up to me after the show saying, 'I'm Baptist, and my mother is just like yours.'
Women risked their lives for the right to vote. When I hear people say, 'Oh, I'm not gonna vote,' I just wanna tear their heart out.
To have a job making people laugh really is the greatest thing.
Some people use stand-up to get something else in their careers, but it's truly the art form of stand-up I love.
People always think you have a lot of money when they see you on TV.
What if obese people couldn't get married?
Comedy is the most palliative way to make a point. People are more willing to listen if they can laugh.
I do believe that it's something that we don't talk about, but when there are clearly defined gender roles, it is much simpler. Because you don't have to think, which people apparently don't like to do.
I started taking all these cooking classes. I learned a lot in them, but you think you're going to retain it, and you don't. Under the pressure, it's hard to retain everything.
I've never been on one of these shows where you have to make alliances and be a team player.
I worked at Military Media, an advertising agency for military-base newspapers. Don't ask, I won't tell.
If I wasn't true to myself, I couldn't live with myself.
If I was married to a man, and I had the same life situation that I have, it's the perfect recipe for a sitcom.
