I like doing film, you know, single-camera.
I just don't want to play the same guy again over and over.
I can't complain about my career, that's for sure.
I've had people say to me, 'Look at the sky, the fields, the ocean, the beautiful sunset. Isn't that proof positive of God?' Following that line of thought, look at the magnificent rainbows after a big rainstorm. Isn't that proof positive that God is gay?
My career has been my craziest adventure.
You have to remember: the wife been home all day cleaning asses and feeding faces. Sometimes the opposite.
Whenever I walk off the golf course, I thank God that I'm able to tell a joke. I thank God I'm good at something.
It seems to be a common denominator with a lot of comics, this low self-esteem thing.
My theory has always been that everyone in show business is there because they were deprived of some attention as a child.
Each day it's like: 'How many more days am I going to feel young and vibrant? I feel young and vibrant now, but I also feel the aches and pains a little bit.
The married man has all but eliminated that worry from his life, simply because his wife knows all about him: the good, the bad, and the tiny.
I love hitting into the rough because it gets me close to the people.
You know, a TV show is a slow build.
It's starting to feel good, although I don't like feeling too good - that's not where my comedy comes from.
