“I think it's always funny when you see kids do Shakespeare.”

If you are a great dramatic actor then you often don't know if people are enjoying your stuff at all because they are sitting there in silence. But with comedy it's a simple premise. If it's funny, people laugh. If it's not, they don't.
I'm just attracted to playing people who are ostensible unlikable. That's not to say that there's something in there that makes you care. It might be that you just find them so awful that you just can't stop watching, like a car crash.
I did not become successful in my work through embracing or engaging in celebrity culture. I never signed away my privacy in exchange for success.
The great thing is that the funny side of getting old is fuel for my comedy.
