A Career In The Theatre Demands So

You Cannot Learn Anything From Success, You Only Learn From Failure.

When I Was Nine, We'd Take A Bus To The Seaside. Coming Back, We'd Take Turns Entertaining, Singing Songs And The Like. I Tried Some Stand-up Comedy. I Had A Captive Audience In That Bus. Then I Realized I Wanted To Do More Than That.

It's A Little Like Casting Out Hundreds Of Fishing Lines Into The Audience. You Start Getting Little Bites, Then More, Then You Hook A Few, Then More. Then You Can Start Reeling Them In And That's A Loveliest Feeling - The Whole Audience Laughing With You.

I Only Travel To Good Material, A Good Director And A Good Company. I Won't Work In Another Country For A Year Any Longer, Because I Have A Lovely Wife And I Adore Her And I Can't Bear To Be Away From Her.

I'd Rather Get A Good Clean Laugh With Good Material, Than An Easy Laugh By Swearing Or Shocking. That's Not Clever Or Comedic, Anybody Can Get A Laugh That Way, It's Too Easy.
