If You've Got A Talent,

My Teacher In The Seventh Grade Told Me That If I Didn't Fool Around During Class, I Could Have 15 Minutes At The End Of The Day To Do A Comedy Routine. Instead Of Bugging Everybody, I'd Figure Out My Routine. And At The End Of The Day, I'd Get To Perform In Front Of My Entire Class. I Thought It Was Really Smart Of Her. It's Amazing How Important That Was.

I Got A Lot Of Support From My Parents. That's The One Thing I Always Appreciated. They Didn't Tell Me I Was Being Stupid; They Told Me I Was Being Funny.

I Think It's Important Never To Look A Gift Horse In The Mouth, Never To Overlook Your Talents [and] What You're Good At.

It Is Better To Risk Starving To Death Then Surrender. If You Give Up On Your Dreams, What's Left?

I Was On Prozac For A Long Time. It May Have Helped Me Out Of A Jam For A Little Bit, But People Stay On It Forever.
