I don't know anybody who does what I do. I'm very underground.

I know that I'm inadequate, but I never thought that at seventeen. I thought I was doing the best I could. I thought I was being idealistic.

If we all knew we were going to live to be 150 years old, we'd all approach our lives very differently.

I write for an audience that likes what I like, reads what I read, thinks about the things I think about. In many ways, this puts me in opposition to the people who go to the theater generally.

For a long time, my shows were about people walking out or about getting my gigs canceled or having the presenter not wanting to pay me.

If you say city to people, people have no problem thinking of the city as rife with problematic, screwed-up people, but if you say suburbs - and I'm not the first person to say this, it's been said over and over again in literature - there's a sense of normalcy.
