 I face every project the same way - do it right and give 110%. 100% isn't good enough. |
| My family is very theatrical. |
| If you're going to do something, make it right and make it as good as you can. Don't waste anybody's time, especially your own. |

| Chick Corea was a great influence on me, musically, as I was growing up. |
| When I was five years old I knew I wanted to act. |
| I hated stand-up. |
| So many comics have such low self-esteem. |
