For some reason, I never watched Lifetime but just discovered it. I was like, 'Oh, it's all rom-coms!'

I would go so far as to say I would not have the life that I have right now if it wasn't for Gabe Liedman. He is the first person I met in my adulthood that I felt was truly delighted by me and understood me and also was curious about me.

Don't think twice. If it's a character that you feel compelled to play and story that you feel needs to be told, don't think twice.

I like to wear dresses and skirts when I go onstage because the attitude that I have is, 'I'm so excited to introduce myself to you.' And I want to be wearing what I'd be wearing to a date or a dinner party.

It was so quick for me on 'SNL.' It's not something I consider to be, like, one of the big spaces in my career.

I think, from a really early age, I just wanted to be an actress. And I ended up doing comedy because it was the thing that kind of, like, came out of my nature the most easily. But, I've always wanted to do as many different kinds of performances - whatever I could.

I have things I say over and over again, for sure, but I've never wanted to make an album or really go on the road. I don't want any traction. I just want to be able to express myself and to feel love.

I waited my whole life to be a woman, so now my clothes are fairly tight.

It looks like I'm just gonna keep getting really, really happy and sad and embarrassed and excited and disappointed for the rest of my life, so let's just do that.

A lot of people think that I'm one of the women from 'Broad City' - and I'm just not.

I got great sex education, and I always knew that if I wanted to be sexually active, I had to have safe sex.

There is something to grace and deportment, but you determine that for yourself. That's something you own.

I like dressing like I'm going on a date when I'm on stage.

I think of my gender as a part of my complex humanity.

I didn't hit puberty until I was, like, 17, so I love to talk about that.

I want to write a studio movie, but probably one that's for me to be in.

I really like to cook and have dinner parties and I like to clean, it really clears my head and it makes me feel good to keep my home as a comfortable place.

I just want to be able to be creative.

I guess some people want to be performers because they want to be famous.

A woman who is not ready to have a baby making it work is not a happy ending to me. It's a personal nightmare.

I like any film where the female characters are complex and have a functioning imperfection.

I sometimes think my earnestness is confused for stupidity, but it shouldn't be.

I feel nervous when the script is set in stone, and I feel nervous when I feel the script is written for mass consumption because I don't see myself that way.

I had some friends that went to this hypnotist to stop smoking, and I kind of love things that seem magical. And I liked that it was in Santa Monica, and I had to go near the ocean to get my brain washed out or whatever. So I went there. And I went on a Thursday, and I got hypnotized.
