I usually get freaked out if I'm in a situation where a lot of people recognise me at once.

I didn't really like the aloneness of doing stand-up. The comedians by nature weren't very - I mean, they were sociable, but they hung out in cliques, and it's very hard to get accepted; lots of competition.

My greatest hope was to get discovered as a comedian and get on a sitcom.

I never know what I'm going to get. A 'Sopranos' fan is very different from a 'Big Lebowski' fan.

I don't tend to think of these characters as losers. I like the struggles that people have, people who are feeling like they don't fit into society, because I still sort of feel that way.

My favorite review described me as the cinematic equivalent of junk mail. I don't know what that means, but it sounds like a dig.
