I sweat a lot.

I am recognized a lot for ‘Master of None.’ It seems like that show really touched a cultural nerve in a good way.

David Wain’s character on ‘Bob’s Burgers’ is really funny and silly and makes me laugh.

My foray into comedy was to avoid getting a job.

I think the personal stories that I tell in my life, I think, sort of do add up to say that you can fail and fail and fail again and continue to move forward.

I started doing comedy with no plan to do voice work. Voice work came as a function of doing comedy and meeting people who eventually develop shows like that. I didn’t seek out from an early age to be on cartoons.

Incompetent and relentless are the worst combination of qualities.

Voice actors I used to know who were starting out in comedy were guys who did a lot of voices. They were usually comedy actors who developed their comedy by doing tons of impressions and voices that were usually very funny. And I never did any of that, so that’s, I guess, why I don’t consider myself a voice actor.

I don’t recommend not working hard, but it’s worked for me.

I was a teenager when ‘Miami Vice’ came out, and that was such a huge show.

It’s mainly been the case where I do very few live action roles – not out of choice but more out of not getting asked.

I worked a lot on ‘Conan’ as an actor, and when I moved to New York, a lot of my friends were on the first staff of that show. I started doing bit parts, which was the first thing I’d done on camera in front of a live audience.

I worked in restaurants, and I worked in the Cambridge Public Library.

I remember on ‘Dr. Katz,’ there was no script really at all. There were just scene outlines.

I’m something of a foodie, I guess, and I’m a big Chinese food fan.

I wasn’t classically trained as an actor; I wasn’t pursuing standup comedy. I really came into it through the back door. And there was a benefit to that, I think, because I wasn’t pressing; I wasn’t pushing.

Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day; teach a man to fish, and he’ll eat for a lifetime, but he’ll probably come to really hate fishing, so just give him a fish and teach him to fish.

It’s physically hard for me to work. I start to break down, physically. My joints start. I get weepy eyes. I don’t sleep well. I was never a hard worker, I guess. So the voiceover work ethic is really great for me – couple days a month, two hours a day.

So many out there place an undue burden on themselves to succeed at something, whatever it might be, and then if they fail, grow seeds of resentment and hate toward that failure and, as a result, themselves, and in many cases, project that resentment and hatred onto others.

You know that feeling when you realize you have to spend an entire summer with a convicted felon? That’s how I felt.”

Basically, God was way too needy. This kind of attitude is all over the Bible: God always being mad at his creations and doling out disproportional punishment. It’s certainly not a fair fight, pitting humans against omnipotence.

I didn’t invent the turtleneck, Lana. But I was the first to see its potential as a tactical garment. The Tactical Turtleneck, Lana. The… Tactleneck!

Hey, sometimes good things come from boredom. Like Gene.

Oh, right! Because that’s what Thanksgiving is all about—running around with a bunch of stupid birds and going on rides. Fine, go. But you know what? I am not making dinner!”

That’s just great. She gets dinner and Dixieland and laid. And I get mosquitoes and no beer and… not laid. How could this get any… [alligator surfaces and growls] LET ME FINISH… worse. You ruined it. You ruined the moment.”

Bloody Mary, full of vodka, blessed are you among cocktails. Pray for me now, at the hour of my death… which I hope is soon. Amen.

I need to lose some weight. I’m getting really fat. But I’m getting older, and I just can’t stop eating wonderful food. Rich, wonderful food.

I never pursued acting with, like, auditions. If anything, I was given roles by people who knew me and liked what I did.

Cute girls and burgers. What more can you ask for? That’s why we live in America.

I’ve never worked for a show or was on a show where I didn’t have a lot of control creatively, but then again, I haven’t worked on a lot of shows.

If you do nothing long enough, something’s bound to happen.

I’m not opposed to putting myself in danger for meaningless comedy.
