I find comedians to be the biggest cocksuckers, because they don't want people to know how easy it is.

I am able to apply certain things to my craft that maybe other comedians don't, because I'm a devotee.

To be a comedian, you have to have some darkness behind it. I certainly draw on my past, and it helps.

I don’t like writing for comedians. I like writing for actors. The best comedians are the best actors.

I studied acting at Carnegie Tech in Pittsburgh because I figured a good comedian certainly could act.

I'm more of a comedian. I wouldn't mind being on SNL (Saturday Night Live). I think that would be cool.

You have to go away to come back. That's just normal. That's with bands, actors, comedians, everything.

Comedians by and large are some of the most sensitive people on earth. Even if they're socially callous.

Even if I wasn't an actress or a comedian, I would be spreading love and laughter [with] whatever I did.

Old radio comedy makes me laugh, as well as 'I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue' and comedians like Paul Merton.

Unfortunately, the show's success comes at the expense of its biggest asset -- the comedians themselves.

I don't think I've ever had a conversation with a comedian who stole except for when it's been in anger.

We seek our friend not sacredly, but with an adulterate passion which would appropriate him to ourselves.

I like the tradition of the Oscars. I like that some of the greatest comedians ever have hosted the show.

When I did Comic Relief, I did it to be on the show; it's a badge of honor as a comedian to do that show.

The comedian can put the punchline out there, but it's the audience that receives it - and has to get it.

I have fear of the audience and I am responsible for the scenes involving me, be it as a comedian or hero.

Jesus was a brilliant Jewish stand-up comedian, a phenomenal improviser. His parables are great one-liners.

Let's face it, the great comedians now that are handicapped in the looks department are tremendous writers.

A lot of the comedians don't even tell the joke. Like only three tell the joke, the rest of them dissect it.

The pressure to being a comedian is being funny, but I've given that up, so there is no pressure whatsoever.

Maybe if I could ever be a successful comedian then I could be an example that Christians can also have fun.

Professional comedians, surprisingly, have a lack of humor. They're insensitive to the insanity of our times.

I consider myself a sit-down comedian really, as much as anything else. I love comedy. Life is a cosmic joke.

I think there comes a time in any comedian's career where they can either coast or keep growing and evolving.
