I've always surrounded myself with funny people.

I don't take anything at face value. I always look for the reasons people are the way they are.

Perfect people are the scariest people to me.

It's a great compliment that people think they're fast reads. It's always funny to me because it takes so long to get a book (written) -- for me, it's never quick.

When I tell people I'm a comedian they say, 'Oh, are you funny?' I say, 'No, it's not that kind of comedy.

I installed a skylight in my apartment... The people who live above me are furious!
