It is capitalism, not Marxism, that trades in futures.

I don't enjoy the boo scare when you're watching a movie and then suddenly there's a big shark on the screen. The only thing they're doing is catching you off guard.

They don't pay me enough to take any racial abuse. If you come up to me and say something racially, I'm going to take your head off.

Having a human conversation is not something I've had any training in either as a comedian or as, you know, a human being.

I'll never be a good writer, and no chance of being a good actor.

I have been tossing around the idea of writing some non-fiction. Maybe a collection of short stories about my experience being a mom and how not to be perfect.

Well, I believe in God. I taught Sunday school.

There is a calmness to a life lived in gratitude, a quiet joy.

Janet Reno, during her confirmation hearings, said she would come down harder on porno, and lately she's talked about how violence on television has an effect on violence in the real world.

At Samasource, a company I founded in 2008, we train people living in poverty from Kenya to California to develop and market 21st century digital skills to adapt to new economic realities.

I've always said that I favour an elected second chamber and I think it's important that there are members of the House of Lords who are willing to vote for their own demise.

I share something in common with Norman Rockwell and, for that matter, with Walt Disney. In that I really like to make people happy.

The first of the four noble truths of Buddhism, that there is suffering in life, was enormously important to me. No one had ever said it out loud. That had been my experience, of course, but no one had ever talked about it. I didn't know what to do with all the fear and emotions within, and here was the Buddha saying this truth right out loud.

I was born with a need to be the center of attention, and, of course, you're the center of the world when you're acting.

I'm the youngest in my family, and everyone is very funny, and I was always trying to keep up with them. I just loved making people laugh.
