Not often is there as much of a vulnerable side as there is a funny side.

There are so many different stories. You can choose to tell them, or not, but they certainly have the right to exist

Don't be snarky, but don't be saccharine. Don't pander, but don't shut people out. Go straight down the line with the performance.

I'd like to be in a tiny indie where I'm lost at sea.

I would not like it thought that I do not buy my own paperclips, sir. I enjoy owning my own paperclips. It means they are mine.

A jest's prosperity lies in the ear
