I've had soccer moms come up and tell me they can relate when I say that I want to throw my baby in the trash.

If someone can use it, then why throw it away? I don't like to see anything thrown in the trash that someone else could use.

I was a nerd growing up, and I'm a little antisocial and awkward.

I did Lassie for six years and I never had anybody come up to me and say, 'It made me want to be a farmer.'

There's been a lot of simple vilification of right-wing people. It's really easy to say, 'Well, you're Christian, you're anti-this and that, and I hate you.' But to me, it's more interesting to say, 'What is this person like and how do they really think?'

Comedians work great as actors because they're good under pressure. With a lot of actors, you have to make them feel like everything's going really well to get a good performance out of them. But, if you have a comedian on the set, you can tell them, 'Hey, you really are screwing this up,' and then they just get better.
