They all laughed when I said I wanted to be a comedian. Well, they're not laughing now.
I told them I wanted to be a comedian, and they laughed; I became a comedian, no one's laughing now
The laugh is what trumps everything.
There are a lot of questions I keep asking myself about why I do comedy. I guess I laugh to keep from crying. And I guess if you ever get me crying, I might not stop. This is the way I look at tragedy or else I'll cry.
There's gratification in making somebody laugh. It's a wonderful sound. I find myself, to this day, doing it, wanting to make people laugh.
But I really believe that if you have the ability, there is an obligation to make people laugh
People don't come to stadiums only to see results. They come to see a reaction, they want to see we are also human, that we can cry or laugh.
I don't consciously try to make things difficult as much as I try to make them a little different. I like all kinds of laughs. I tried to make a show that elicit groans, guffaws, chuckles, boos.
If you can think of all the times in your life, some of the happiest times were probably when you were laughing. And some of the worst times in your life you were being laughed at.
I pity anyone who can't laugh. There must be something wrong with their religion or their lives. The devil can't laugh.
