Comedy Quotes
I didn't see it coming, ... But Comedy Central wanted to do it and will air all 13 shows that we did. That's why I'm going out on this tour.

I wanted to take a couple of years off, but that will have to wait because of the show and the tour.

Lea DeLaria
I was in musical comedy. And I did very well, but the memorization killed me. I'm not good at memorizing, and it gave me a lot of anxiety. I hated the makeup. I hated all that pancake makeup. I didn't really like dressing for parts.
Patti Smith
It takes a while to realize that just because you're a stand-up comedian and you do comedy, you're not going to be good at all comedy.
