I get anxious. That lovely Jewish guilt that comes with ancestry.
I thought she was the funniest woman, and I believed being a comedian was the most exciting thing you could be.
I'm always learning when I'm surrounded by great people. In every experience, I feel like I'm learning. I'm not like, "Oh good. I'm done! I don't have to learn anymore."
I have an equal opportunity womb!
I still have a fantasy of being a musician when I grow up.
There are days when I wonder why my mom couldn't be here to see this.
I don't look my best when I wake up! But I do feel beautiful when I'm tired and happy and I've had a good laugh and a glass of champagne.
I like being a funny lady. I think theres nothing sexier than a funny lady.
I don't know if comedy is a male sport. I always wondered that.
I never thought I'd get a chance to do what I'm doing. It's such a dream.
I learned the enormous power of writing for yourself, especially now that people seem to be receptive to the fact that women can write.
Lord knows I had what you could call many fashion Don'ts in my day.
Before I had children, everything about my life was devoted to Saturday Night Live.
I've never set out to write a funny movie or be a funny comedian as a woman. I am a woman. I don't really have a choice in the matter. My goal is just to be funny.
