Comedy Quotes

To be honest with you, the dramatic side is more fun to play because I don't get to do it as often as I get to do the comedy stuff.

I am a standup comedian who has performed comedy in the Middle East in front of thousands of Muslims. And believe it or not, they laughed at plenty, especially when we poked fun at local culture.
