I Think That's Some Of

I Come From A Pretty Working-class Neighborhood In Chicago. Hard Work Was Just Expected Of You. It Wasn't Some Noble Thing You Did; It Was A Prerequisite. It's What A Man Did. You Get Up, You Put On Your Boots, And You Work Hard. We've Lost A Lot Of That, I'm Afraid.

I Like Working. I Wish I Could Say I Made A Deliberate Choice To Comedy, But It's Just What Came My Way. It's What The Studios Wanted To Make. Some Of My Friends Were Doing It, Like Will Ferrell And Adam Mckay, And They Offered Me 'talladega Nights.' It's Just Nice Work If You Can Get It. It's A Joyful Day At Work, Making Your Friends Laugh.

There's So Much Joy In Doing Comedy Work, And That's One Of The Reasons I Like To Do It - Because It's Just A Hilarious Day At Work.

Most Boys' First Hero Is Their Father. That Was Definitely True Of My Dad. He Was A Proud Irish American And He Taught Me A Lot About Ethics And Responsibility. He Also Introduced Me To A Lot Of Wonderful Folk Music.

I Hear Actors Complain About Being Stereotyped, And A Lot Of The Time, You Have Yourself To Blame. Just Don't Take The Part If You Feel Like It's A Stereotypical Part For You. You Have Control Over Your Life. We Don't Have The Old Studio System, Where You Have To Do What They Tell You.
