funny people rounds
I'm surprized Hitler didn't round up the toupee people.
pants stores shops
The only change I can really see is that I don't have to shop for pants in stores anymore.
home thinking shooting
There are times when I'm driving home after a day's shooting, thinking to myself, That scene would've been so much better if I had written it out.
bleak
Until I started doing standup, there were some very bleak days.
terrible happens
Whenever something good happens to me, it's usually followed by something terrible.
funny kids knows
You have to discover when you're inadequate to be funny and you don't know you're inadequate when you're a kid.
mean comedian would-be
I guess I still feel that I'm a comedian; if I had to pick one thing that I feel like I could do, it would be that. That doesn't mean that I like it, but I feel that's what I am.
new-york thinking names
When I was living in New York and didn't have a penny to my name, I would walk around the streets and occasionally I would see an alcove or something. And I'd think, that'll be good, that'll be a good spot for me when I'm homeless.
lonely kids thinking
I still think of that guy I was without a wife or kids, and I still want to entertain that guy. The lonely guy, the frustrated guy, the guy with no money - this is the guy who needs to laugh.
couple hook firsts
I was very fortunate to hook up with Jerry in the first place. The network was already committed to doing something with him, so I skipped a couple of hundred steps right there.
perfect able caviar
All of a sudden I discovered that I'm allergic to caviar. It was the perfect metaphor for my life. When I was only able to afford bad caviar, I could certainly eat my fill of it.
war army president
I couldn't be happier that President Bush has stood up for having served in the National Guard, because I can finally put an end to all those who questioned my motives for enlisting in the Army Reserve at the height of the Vietnam War.
lunch normal hot
The lunch in a normal American restaurant is very problematic for me. I don't like to have hot food for lunch.
hero thinking
I think Michael Moore is a hero.
