I always feel the most validated and confident being around people that I find funny - having Fred Armisen laugh at a scene or Bill Hader or Seth Meyers give me a compliment.

I think of myself as kind of a hippy. Everyone around me says that's not the impression they get. They think I'm sassy. Apparently, I think I'm nicer than I really am.

People have confused playing devil's advocate with being intelligent.

I was voted funniest person in my middle-school yearbook. So I guess I was funny in middle school?

What can I say about Brian Williams. Nothing, because I work for NBC.

There's so much more bad information than good information out there - everybody's got something to say and it's usually wrong.

I solemnly swear not to talk about Hillary's appearance, because that is not journalism.

If you keep chasing shooting stars, you'll never feel the warmth of the sun.

You cannot buy trust, you have to earn it.

Who worries for dying? If I close my eyes tonight, I will either dream, or not, or my eyes will open and I will be here again. And if none of those happen, and I do not wake? Who worries for dying?

I gave 'em a sword. And they stuck it in and they twisted it with relish. And I guess if I had been in their position I'd have done the same.

It's hard for me to understand how working-class people support themselves.

I feel like girls always deserve flowers; it's just a nice thing to do. If you want to make your girlfriend smile, send her flowers!

The last time I played golf with President Ford he hit a birdie. And an eagle, a moose, an elk, an aardvark...

Today I find it's extremely hard to launch one's brand, and that's also why we are helping these young talents.

You cannot succeed if at some point you haven't failed.
