I like playing all sorts of ages and genders.

I don't just want to upset people and shock people by saying something really outrageous.

I went to a private boys' school, and we had girls in the last two years.

Religious humor is not really my area, so I probably wouldn't do anything about that, or politics or something.

I feel like I'm so normal. So normal it's boring.

I'll probably be still playing a school girl when I'm 60.

If you over-think, it affects things too much; I work instinctively, like painting in a way. Think too much, and you ruin everything.

I've done signings where elderly people will line up to get photos with me and ask me to sign things. They don't even pretend it's for their grandkids. They're like, "No, it's for me."

I get bored with the constant probing for the cliched tears of the clown, the dark side of the comic.

You will never have a better friend than a friend who points you to Christ.

Forcing automakers to sell smaller cars to improve fuel economy [is like]... fighting the nation's obesity problem by forcing clothing manufacturers to sell garments in only small sizes.

Things explain each other, not themselves.

The more you write, the faster you'll write, and the less you'll mind throwing stuff out.

A nice pair of Jimmy Choos never hurt anyone.

A tight-money policy reinforces inequality in two ways. Its high interest rates disproportionately reward the rich, and the resulting unemployment disproportionately punishes the poor.

Life is too short to waste on the admiration of one man.
