I've always had confidence. It came because I have lots of initiative. I wanted to make something of myself.

If you're involved in with something that's original, you know, you'll always go back and try to rehash it.

I had a band before I did standup - I've always done music. I got known for being funny, and that's how I make a living - and from acting - but I never stopped playing and producing and recording music.

From the very beginning, I always tried to make dialogue flow comfortably; I always did that to make it seem more authentic.

I keep telling people I'll make movies until I'm fifty and then I'll go and do something else. I'm going to be a professional gentleman of leisure.

I had no choice in the decision to make myself available. I was not always doing things I wanted to do.
