Saturday Quotes

• I write for a radio show that, no matter what, will go on the air Saturday at five o'clock central time.

• I think that's the thing I learned at 'Saturday Night Live' - any time I would try and strategize, I would always, always fall on my face. Things worked out when I tried to make it about what I was feeling at that moment and what I was into in that moment of my life.
