Never trust a man whom you know to have acted like a scoundrel to others, whatever friendliness he may profess to feel towards yourself, however plausible he may be, or however kindly he may behave; be sure that, the moment he has anything to gain by so doing, he will “throw you over.”
I don’t think you should just do what makes you happy. Do what makes you great.
You do not have to be fearless, just don’t let fear stop you.
You cannot let a fear of failure or a fear of comparison or a fear of judgment stop you from doing what’s going to make you great. You cannot succeed without this risk of failure. You cannot have a voice without the risk of criticism and you cannot love without the risk of loss.
Growing up in Rhode Island, my friends would have strung me up if I had been a Yankees fan.
I was a theater guy growing up and I wanted to be Al Pacino, and I think I just looked and sounded too funny.

I never saw myself as a comedian. I saw myself as a guy who can act funny.
Both of my parents are actually music teachers.
I love Queen. Not all of it. Some of it, I can’t get into. But “Don’t Stop Me Now” is a pretty hilarious song. It’s a good pick-me-up in the car.

Don’t wait for your break, make your break. Go make it happen for yourself.
Thinking of Plan B muddies up your chances of succeeding at Plan A.

Both of my parents are actually music teachers. I think I got to a certain age where I decided I’d rather be a baseball player than a musician. Now, like most kids, I regret it.
