Brooks Ashmanskas – rehearsing and putting on a show can be very stressful and exhausting, but Brooks makes every moment a joyride. His influence taught me to never take myself or what I’m doing too seriously.

A successful competition for me is always going out there and putting 100 percent into whatever I’m doing. It’s not always winning. People, I think, mistake that it’s just winning.

Globalization, far from putting an end to power diplomacy between States, has, on the contrary, intensified it.

Shooting is nothing. Anybody can shoot. The big charge is putting on a show for the crowd.

We have to get out of this cultural mindset of putting badges on ourselves and playing the martyr spinning 1,000 plates. We need to be spinning six plates, and doing it well. Otherwise plates tumble and break.

Elegance does not consist in putting on a new dress.
I’m all about showing people that I’m a little messed up, I have a lot of the same problems you have. By exposing myself and putting myself out there, people can relate to me and my act won’t grow stale. I mean, nobody wants to hear a comedian say, ‘Life is great.’
Also, there are seats in the diner that always fall off the table. If you have a scene where you’re packing up at the end of the day and putting them on the table, they just slide off.
It really doesn’t matter who I fight. It’s about me putting on a good performance and just looking good overall that night.
