Comedy clubs can be brutal. Those people are for real and if you aren't funny they aren't laughing. They don't care who you are.

I'm good at coming up with wacky characters and funny dialogue.

If you could cross a lion and a monkey that's what I'd be because monkeys are funny and lions are strong.

If I'm in something funny I like to try and find some kind of serious line in it that people can relate to.

I have an older sister named Haley and she wanted to be an actress. So I wanted to be an actress. It's really funny the way that some people don't give kids enough credit for like really being driven and really wanting to do things so badly.

I actually feel like for a lot of my career I wasn't able to show my comedic range. I did a lot of dramas and dramedies. I was on 'E.R.' That's not generally thought of as a funny show.

I was going through a little bit of turbulence in my career. And so it's funny how turbulence itself will make you hold onto something for security. And so the only thing I knew is trust in the Lord and lean not unto your own heart in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path.

It's funny but when I arrived in California to start college I was much more interested in becoming a surfer and cruise along in life from one beach to the next. I didn't plan out any huge career for myself.

Everything seems fine until you're about 40. Then something is definitely beginning to go wrong. And you look in the mirror with your old habit of thinking 'While I accept that everyone grows old and dies it's a funny thing but I'm an exception to that rule.'

To this day I've found that it doesn't matter what a guy looks like if he's really funny. His sense of humor makes him attractive. On the other hand you don't hear men saying 'No she's not pretty but is she ever funny!'

It's funny that all these goths paint their faces with such white make-up and that is the actual colour of my skin I am that pale!

I really love 'Soapdish.' I wish 'Soapdish' had more of a moment because I felt that that is a really strong funny movie. Kevin Kline is hilarious in that movie.

I'm not a movie guy I'm not a TV sitcom guy but whatever seems to fit and is funny is good for me.

I tell girls all the time that the men that have fallen in love with me have all fallen during a man repeller stage... funny how life works out like that.

That's a funny thing fame. People definitely do treat you differently. When you begin to be successful people say 'Don't go changing.' Well that's easy to say but the fact is you don't change at all - other people do.

It's funny because I did all of these interviews as soon as I had the baby and they were asking questions and I really didn't have an idea of anything because I was so blurry.

I'm not a very serious person. You know how they say that clowns are very funny in public and are really sad at home? I'm really kind of stupid at home and more serious in public.
