I'm keeping in shape, you know, gotta look good for the ladies - and certain guys. Hey, I can't control who's looking. I just gotta bring the heat.

I often think about my future wife and how lax she's been about getting in touch with me.

You'll get them tomorrow. You gave it a good shot. Keep your chin up.

The more you perform, the more adept you get at the nuances of navigating that communal conversation.

I belong to a gym now... well, let me rephrase that: I don't belong there at all, but I go.

The blues is a hopeful music. It helps you process something rather than avoid it. It's like mourning, in essence.

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

Comedy takes all of life and puts it through a lens of acceptance, just by the mere act of talking about it on stage in a communal setting. It's very primal and ritualistic in that sense.

A woman should always stand by a woman.

A lot of people call me the architect of rock & roll. I don't call myself that, but I believe it's true.

Whether you want to be the best at your job, or at sports, just do your best. Give it everything you have.

I'm not sure I've learned anything new about life; but I've had to think harder about death and what comes after for other people.

Without the eye, the head is blind. Without the head, the eye is adrift.
