If I could live in New York the rest of my life, I absolutely would, but it's also prohibitively expensive and you have to be working. New York is a lot nicer when you have a job.
It's weird how you can make people feel comfortable, and then ask them an uncomfortable question, but it doesn't ruin their day.
It was only a few years ago that I couldn't get hired to save my life.
If it wasn't for what goes on in the world of politics, we wouldn't really have much of a show.
Kids do have to learn that life is a humiliating charade of endless disappointment and tragedy ultimately culminating in pain, decay, and death. My parents used to sing me to sleep with that one.
