I'm a huge poster collector.

I come from a pretty strange family.

God only knows what else is on the web about me.

I love anything to do with ventriloquism and magic.

We were big Saturday Night Live and Eddie Murphy fans.

I like doing movies that relate to people's experience.

I had an obsession that I was male characters from movies.

It's nice to see a movie where people are actually succeeding.

I loved the idea of the Nerd as Hero, which Ghost World also had.

The best situation is where they cast you and then they trust you.

Women don't want to be listened to. They only want to be agreed with

I like the idea of capturing people who aren't there to save the world.

I want to be an animated character. I'm also doing more writing and directing.

In high school, my goal was to be a writer for SNL, then I got into the acting.

When I do a character, I try to base it on someone I have met or an experience I've had.

There's too much insecurity on studio sets, with all the people standing around, whispering.

I know as I'm taking my dying breath, the ambulance guy will ask me why they cancelled Action.

I met Patricia Neal, John Houseman. But I loved my grandfather because he was this kind, talented man.

I'm a big fan of Albert Brooks, Nichols and May. I'd like to follow in their footsteps and do comedy films.

It was an interesting way to come across in my first big role. To work with Robert DeNiro was very exciting.

I enjoy doing independent films more, only because there's more freedom. There's not as many cooks tampering with what you are trying to do.

When we were doing a scene, lots of times we would collapse giggling because it seemed so silly because it felt like we were doing a home movie at times.

I've done a few studio films in the last few years where I feel like I've done good work, and then I only end up in two scenes. That's been very disappointing.

I love sketch comedy. My real goal is to do something with Albert Brooks. That would be my fantasy. I stay up night and day thinking up stuff he might find funny.

I always wanted to get into the horror genre. I like scary movies. I want to go to the fan shows and sign posters with my head hanging by a thread like a B-movie actress.

I know in this day and age, when you meet men, they often want to be boys. They dress like boys. And it's very confusing. I can't offer any solution except to make a movie about it.

I wore a lot of vintage clothing. I dressed like a reporter, with a little card in my hat. I had these fantasies of who I wanted to be, so I'd dress like an explorer, a cowboy. I dressed up like Elton John a lot too. That was another period.

I learned that a television show is not a collaboration. You give your 180 percent, but you do not question the show-runners. I remember doing a reading, and my part was kind of small that week, and I commented on it, and the next week, they cut me out of the show. So I learned that you never ask questions. In TV, you always assume you're going to be fired.
