At the end of the day, even if my part is a bit goofy, the key thing is that I'm doing what I love to do, and that's to make people laugh.

I love comedy. Playing the underdog, and getting the laughs is my form of entertainment. I could think of nothing different that I would want to be doing at this time in my life.

I would love to work with Sir Anthony Hopkins. How and why that would happen in a comedy I'm not sure - why he would be dragged over to my side, or I'd be be dragged over to his side.

I am the common man. I'm polite, I love my family and I play by the rules. And sometimes I get pushed around. That's my lifestyle, and that's what I try to bring to characters.

I don't believe I've ever played a hip dude. I don't think I would have the wherewithal to do that.

I don't consider myself, you know, in real life one of those funny guys. My comedy comes through my work.

I like to have a regimen. I don't like to be fancy free.

American Pie' was a big movie for me. No one knew it at the time, but it allowed me to be offered such movies as 'Like Mike' and 'New York Minute' with the Olsen twins

I can't do comedy that is cutting and vicious. If I knew I'd said something that was going to make someone feel bad, well, that supersedes everything.

I'm not a comedian. I don't do stand-up. I don't tell jokes. I'm a comedic actor, and approach my work that way. The comedy comes through the character.

I let the comedy come through the character and just try to make sure that everything is kind of rounded in a truth, in a reality, because that's what I need to make a character work.

Fear of failure is deceptive.Don't do it, you'll fail, it says.Courage is inceptive.It's where success starts.

Most good things have been said far too many times and just need to be lived.

People don't change their behavior unless it makes a difference for them to do so.

Christianity is a rebellion against natural law, a protest against nature. Taken to its logical extreme, Christianity would mean the systematic cultivation of the human failure.

It's hard to teach passionately about something that you don't have a passion for.

I definitely miss the rush from wiping out an opponent.

There are 10-20 times more male comics than female comics; it's something to do with the social structure of society.

"They order," said I, "this matter better in France."

If men only believe enough in Christ they can commit adultery and murder a thousand times a day without periling their salvation.

Initially, I felt like my duty was to just keep it positive and be positive and sometimes I crack in that. We're human. I'm imperfect at times and that was just me being imperfect at that one point.
