I like to take chances, and that's the key to comedy -- dancing like an idiot but doing it with wild abandon..

Many of the people I've worked with over the years came from a sketch-comedy background or an improv background, and I've learned a lot from them..

I'd just like to retire quietly with dignity, secure in the knowledge that no more comedies will ever be made now that I'm gone..

I'll quit coffee. It won't be easy drinking my Bailey's straight, but I'll get used to it. It'll still be the best part of waking up..

Nobody's ever kept their sitcom character going after the show's off the air..

I've been going to the same grocery store for 13 years, and all of a sudden one day everybody was like, 'Oh, my God..

That's the key to comedy: allowing yourself to look stupid.

That's what I like to do: bring out the best in people..
