I started out as a stand-up comedian. And that's what I'm most comfortable doing.

If you're involved in with something that's original, you know, you'll always go back and try to rehash it.

'SNL' is part of my history. I got on the show as a kid. That's the show I got known from.

I'm 42 and the age of a guy who has kids, so I guess I'm playing right where I'm supposed to be. I'm comfortable with that, but in the same breath I'd do something edgy. If someone came to me and offered me an edgy and funny story, then I'd do it.

I haven't read a newspaper in 20 years. I don't look at the computer or anything. You have to have a filter on what you let in.

If you interact with anyone, ultimately, all people are the same. However they're dressed, when you're in the house with a person, they're going to be a regular human being.

I never hated hip-hop. It became the new rock and roll. It became the biggest thing that Africans have ever done in the history of the Americas. Hip-hop put more black Americans on than anything before it. It fed more people. It allowed them to diversify into clothing lines and billion-dollar headphone companies.

I don't think more concentration is required for Robert De Niro to do what he does as for Jim Carrey to do what he does.

If I don't die in a plane crash or something, this country has a rare opportunity to watch a great talent grow.
