Stand-up in general is the most raw form of entertainment. There is no pyrotechnics or back-up dancers, it’s just live and die by your jokes, that’s it.
The sword was a very elegant weapon in the days of the samurai. You had honor and chivalry much like the knights, and yet it was a gruesome and horrific weapon.
Kids these days don’t know as much about music as they think they do.
We don’t know what we’re writing until it just comes out. We don’t sit around crunching numbers.
I don’t see many people with longevity anymore. Everything was harder when I started, and you had to take acting lessons, do theater parts, work on connections and then get lucky. The technology is good, but it’s also a hindrance for longevity.
There’s people that figure if they hang out with you, all of a sudden they’re going to be successes. I’ve had two or three stalkers in my life.

You’ve got Corey Feldman doing his thing, and the problem is, they’re trying to be pop stars. You can’t compare Salty to any of the other actors out there playing music.
I’ve been blessed to have done different roles, but I don’t think people see me as funny.
It pisses me off, people are idiots, but what are you going to do? The world is full of idiots. That’s why we’ll never have flying cars. People don’t know how to drive.
I’m the guy who will eat something that looks nice when I’m out, but when I take it home in a doggie bag, it’ll sit in the back of my refrigerator until it starts to move.
I’m not a big radio guy, I don’t listen to whatever is the hip new thing.

I don’t think you can ever make enough to be set for life. Well, I guess there are limits. In the billions, I guess.
I don’t know who’s worse with little boys, Mario or Michael Jackson.
