When there’s writing that you really trust, it’s very freeing as an artist.
The way I look at it, everything is a trade. You acquire some money, so then you’ve got no financial burdens, but everyone wants your money and so who can you trust? Or you’ve got no money and you can trust anyone, but then you’ve got the worry to pay bills. Which is worse?
I believe that laughter is the best emotional Band-Aid in the world. It’s like nature’s Neosporin.
I really like the half-hour comedy. I really do. I know people that are in movies all the time and they, you know, they don’t see their families as much. And that takes its toll over time.
It’s funny – nowadays people that are famous get chased by paparazzi. They have this fame, but they don’t have the money to hide from it.
You can’t be funny if you don’t have good material.
I have funny bones. If there’s ever any kind of tension, I’ll always be the one to try and be funny to loosen things up.
Friends’ was an education in intelligent comedic banter in intelligent vernacular. It was an education in scene study. It was an education in group dynamic. I came out of there with a master’s degree in comedy.
