I also do a certain amount of talking through material on stage, to see what happens and allow interesting ideas to manifest.

I often think about my future wife and how lax she's been about getting in touch with me.

I'm keeping in shape, you know, gotta look good for the ladies - and certain guys. Hey, I can't control who's looking. I just gotta bring the heat.

You'll get them tomorrow. You gave it a good shot. Keep your chin up.

The more you perform, the more adept you get at the nuances of navigating that communal conversation.

I belong to a gym now... well, let me rephrase that: I don't belong there at all, but I go.

The blues is a hopeful music. It helps you process something rather than avoid it. It's like mourning, in essence.

I think there comes a time in any comedian's career where they can either coast or keep growing and evolving.

Comedy takes all of life and puts it through a lens of acceptance, just by the mere act of talking about it on stage in a communal setting. It's very primal and ritualistic in that sense.

Inherent in mourning is celebration. Mourning without celebration or some form of acceptance leaves you stuck.

Comedians act every night on stage, so they have great performing chops. They especially know how to play themselves, which is how we set 'Teachers Lounge' up.

Fall makes me think that if I fail horribly at this art thing, and then fail horribly with this writing thing, I'll go run a pumpkin patch.

If one man challenges a statement and another cannot prove it, it does not necessarily follow that the statement is false.

I just hope people don't get sick of us. I'm sick of us and I'm in Destiny's Child.

It’s critical that we know what we believe, no matter what we feel...that we know what is true, no matter what we see.

Family rules? We only have one rule in our house, and that's 'Don't Be Annoying'

Believing something doesn't change who you are. Neither does rejecting something you once believd in.

Good and quickly seldom meet.

The only way I've learned to change anyone's mind politically is to make them laugh. My whole career has been about that.

I do see myself going to LA. Not anytime soon.

I would never write about someone that forced me to write at a lower register than what I can write.
