stars character actors
Dustin Hoffman said this one time, that if he hadn't made it as a film star, he would still be happy as a character actor because he was a character actor because of his face from day one, so he would always work in the theater.
people battle cameras
The biggest battle for a lot of people who come out of the theater, which is where I was trained, is that they can never forget that a camera is pointed at them.
long feel-good able
The things that make me angry still make me angry. George Carlin is 67, and he's still as funny as he's ever been, and he's still angry. And that makes me feel good, because I feel like if I stick around long enough, I'll still be able to work.
basketball school hockey
I wanted to be a hockey player. Where I grew up, the basketball courts were rarely used. I was terrible in school and actually said, 'I'm going to be a hockey player.'
drama hollywood able
I guess you get pigeon-holed in Hollywood, but I'm ok with that because I've been able to do a lot. I started in the theater, then I went to stand-up comedy, and then when I went into the movies to do comedy and drama and big movies and small movies.
funny humor thinking
I tried eating vegetarian. I felt like a wimp going into a restaurant. "What do you want to eat sir? Broccoli?" Broccoli's a side dish, folks. Always was, always will be, OK! When they ask me what I want, I say: What do you think I want? This is America. I want a bowl of raw red meat right now.
meals dull dessert
Marriage is like a dull meal with the dessert at the beginning.
funny country humor
We live in a country where John Lennon takes eight bullets, Yoko Ono is walking right beside him and not one hits her. Explain that to me!
fun enemy ifs
If you had no enemies, you had no fun.
mean special ifs
If you see me doing a new stand-up special, it probably means I've been out of work for a while.
america fire people
Most people don't know how underpaid and often ill-equipped urban fire departments are across North America.
funny regret humor
My biggest regret in life is that I didn't hit John Denver in the mouth while I has the chance.
mother brother growing-up
My brother and I tortured my mother growing up.
mother daughter my-daughter
I bought my daughter a Chihuahua and I fell in love with it. So now I carry Coco around with me all the time.
