My father was the kind of guy who'd always say 'Throw out any subject and I got a joke on it.'

I'm not into working out. My philosophy: No pain, no pain.

My kind of gay is like the late-breaking-lesbian kind of gay.

My stand-up act is very clean.

I cried when I turned 34 for no other reason than 34 sounded old to me at the time.

I've seen too many comics who got their own shows and were undone because they worked for an executive producer who didn't understand their comedy or their sensibility.

There were very few women comics when I started out doing stand-up. But I always saw that as a great advantage.

Honestly, so much of my book is about the best things in my life have happened since I'm 40.

All my other relationships with men, there was so much maneuvering and strategic decisions and stuff.

I think what I would say to my younger self, and probably to younger, just starting-out writers is that a lot of times you're just afraid to put yourself out there, and it's uncomfortable because it's working up the courage to do something, to push yourself to do those things.
