I Love That People Can't Place Me.

Kind Of The Exhausting Thing About Doing Pure Comedy, Or Something That's Broader, Is You're Kind Of A Slave To The Laugh. If It's Not Funny, Then There's Not Much Point In Doing It. The Kind Of über-objective Is To Make People Laugh. You Always Have To Have That In The Back Of Your Mind, "eh, I've Got To Figure Out A Way To Make This Funny."

I've Never Been Someone Who's Been Given Work Because Of The Way I Look Or Because I Have Some Box Office Appeal. I Get Work Because People Know I'm Swinging As Hard As I Can, Trying To Connect, Giving It My Level Best. I Have A Face For Radio, But Here I Am Doing What I Do.

I Love To Improvise, But I Always Thought "man, It's Like The Final Frontier For Improvisational Actors, To Really Go For Something Emotional, Something That's Not Just Chasing The Laugh."

I Just Like Surprising People. I Never Want To Get To A Place Where People See That I Am In A Movie And They Go See The Movie And They Expect A Certain Performance One Way Or The Other. That Is Just Inherently Boring To Me.

There Are A Lot Of Actors In The World, There's A Small Number That Actually Get To Work As Actors, And There Is A Tiny Group Of Actors That Are Celebrated In The Way That I Have Been. I Feel Incredibly Lucky.
