“You know you must be doing something right if old people like you.”

“If you don't have the right people around you and you're moving at a million miles an hour you can lose yourself.”

“If I can make a teacher's salary doing comedy, I think that's better than being a teacher.”

“I still think people do have racial hang-ups, but I think one of the reasons I can joke about it is people are shedding those racial hatreds.”

“The only thing harder than leaving show business is coming back.”

“People don't know what it's like standing up there onstage, when you have a wall of people smiling at you.”

“The worst thing to call somebody is crazy. It's dismissive.”
