You can teach somebody how to be a brain surgeon, but you cannot teach them how to walk on a stage and make people laugh.
You can't teach someone to be funny, but you can teach comic timing. If you listen to a good comic, you can learn how to put it on a page.
It's funny when people say, 'I don't think Julia likes me.' Honey, if I don't like you, you're going to know about it.
No, no I'm not, no, but I just think... when people are naked it tells you a lot about their relationships.
You say a line and you wait for them to laugh, then you say another line and you wait... It felt weird to me. But it's interesting and the energy is almost like theatre, I suppose, with all the people there.
People have a certain perfection about them, no matter who they are. Like when Janis Joplin sang. Gorgeous!
When people approach you angrily, you take them very seriously, and, if you're like me, with the faint suggestion that you can be angry too, and that you would like to know what the shooting is about.
The culture is just so coarse that you have to take it to that level and people will be like, 'Whoa!' And then you can make people think about stuff. It's kind of like shock therapy.
I just think it's fun to remind people that good television has exited and it can exist again and just to give them pleasure and enjoy it and make them laugh.
