I think if you look back at all those great comedies on television in the past, it's all lovable losers that gathered together - 'Taxi' and 'Cheers,' 'Seinfeld' and 'Friends.'

In high school, my prom date fooled around with another guy - on prom night!

I really lived life to its fullest and that got me in trouble from time to time.

There's nothing better than a world where everybody's just trying to make each other laugh.

A lot of people think that addiction is a choice. A lot of people think it's a matter of will. That has not been my experience. I don't find it to have anything to do with strength.

I became a big Kings fan, and then later on my hometown of Ottawa got a team, so then I was very, very torn. I just love both of those teams very much.

If there's a silence in a room I'll try to fill it as soon as humanly possible.

Nine times out of 10, women don't want to fix a problem, they just want to be understood. I'll never get that.

I'll just sit at the piano a lot an play like through different chord exercises and kind of just throwing my hands down on the piano from one chord to the next to see what happens.

We have to learn to make our own way through a complex world without the benefit of an accepted trustworthy route map.

My ambition was always to be a perfect picture of an American.

I'm not afraid to go out on a limb, style-wise or with lyrics. I don't ever want to be afraid to cut those types of songs because radio might not play it.

I consider writing a legitimate Zen practice.
