I was the little, funny one. I felt I was the child among grown women.
I think the most important thing journalism taught me is to mine for details. The details are key. You can't try to be funny or strange or poignant; you have to let the details be funny or strange or poignant for you.
I have deep comedic roots, and I want to be funny.
I find a lot of things kind of funny and I often say what's on my mind, and then get nine texts from all my friends going, 'What's the matter with you?' But I haven't ever made a big attempt to have any particular image. And I don't really worry abou...
I have a great ability to improvise verbally, and I am very funny on a dime.
Gene Wilder is so funny.
I've been lucky enough to play some funny, nasty ladies in my day, and if you can make them foolish, they're even funnier.
Don DeLillo's 'White Noise,' which I read when I was 19. It showed me that a book can be funny as hell and deadly serious.
It's funny, I'd rather be known as a writer who crafted a really nice piece about women's friendships over time. But that doesn't roll off the tongue like 'YouTube sensation.'
I did a film called 'Black Dynamite' that was very, very funny. That seems to be a film that's kind of a cult classic.
It's funny because Hollywood is such a small place that everyone really is less than 6 degrees of separation.
The tour bus is always fun, and there's plenty of time to watch movies. Actually, Kanye introduced me to the movie 'Step Brothers.' We were sitting there, watching it and clowning around - it was so funny, man.
I auditioned for a solo in church and got it. I was about seven and I sang a song called, 'Jesus, I Heard You Had a Big House' and I remember people standing up at the end and me thinking, 'Oh, I think I'm going to like this.' That's how it all began...
My friend had a funny remark; he told me everybody has something - some people have a big butt, some people are insecure and at least you know what it is, even if it's a lump on your head. I know I have a lump on my head.
I'm a big fan of comedians not having to apologize for anything. Nowadays it seems comedians are always apologizing for being funny.
In 'War Party,' I play a quarter-breed Indian. It's a serious movie, but it's funny, too.
I can be dramatic. I can be funny. I can be sexy. I can be sad. I can be glad.
It's funny because I never studied, I never took a class. So everything I do is very innate and organic; I don't really have words for it. It is a communion with spirit. I don't get in my own way and allow the character to do what it's going to do.
I think the whole concept that women aren't funny is dead. It's over; it's done.
I feel like people are funny, and women are people, so I'm sick of the distinction.
I grew up as a very sarcastic person. I was always the class clown, and to date girls, I had to be really funny. I was really skinny growing up. I was so thin, I had to run around in the shower to get wet. That kind of thin. So I always had to rely o...
