In New York, we get down. In L.A., everybody's pretty much standing around like they're at a keg stand. You got to get the party started, so I just take my shirt off.
I've still got family members living below the poverty line in New York.
I've gone through my trials and tribulations, and sure, it's gotten bumpy and all that, but I'm here. OK?
It gets scary when you're dealing with people who don't know how to separate fact from fiction.
When I do stand-up... I get to do whatever I want to do. There's no boundaries. You'll get to know me. You'll leave with a piece of me.
I'm no Jerry Seinfeld. I wasn't raised with some backyard with a creek and trees and all that.
I want to show the world my humor.
George Carlin is an influence on a generation. He made me want to do comedy.
I love working with Alec Baldwin. He's one of the five greatest actors ever to live.
If I had to describe my sense of humor, I would say it's contemporary wit, you know what I'm saying?
Outside of show business, I live a normal life.
I don't like doing stand-up for little kids. It's not geared for that.
The version of me you see on TV now and in my feature films is a pretty happy guy, isn't he?
I love '30 Rock' because Tina Fey allows me to fly over the cuckoo nest once a week.
