I would love to play a British character one day. My accent wavers between Scottish and Irish very easily, though.

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.

I was sure 'Summer Heights High' would be a cult ABC thing; I had no idea it would be such a big hit.

I'm interested in youth culture - when your parents are running your life, but you think you're the big man - but I'm not trying to make a statement.

Leaders learn more from blames than praises. Praises make them know what’s already done well

When women turn on women, and take cheap shots at their decisions purely to score political points it serves as proof that feminism, as a movement, is dead and no longer relevant or credible.

The best is to do injustice without paying the penalty

It is only by our hands that we can build this continent to the standard that we envy and admire in the advanced countries.

We Communists are like seeds and the people are like the soil. Wherever we go, we must unite with the people, take root and blossom among them.

I am not the first straight dancer or the last.

I will never stop doing stand-up; that's my career, but I will do movies in Hollywood.

Power exercised with violence has seldom been of long duration.

I'm the messiest person I know.

just because something is fun doesn't mean it's a waste of time.
