  • [on why he was offered Saturday Night Live at age 46] Phil Hartman had just left the show and they needed somebody to play David Spade’s dad.
  • Lloyd Richards, who was my [acting] teacher at NYU, had this theory that every scene you do is about love, on some level. At the time, when I was 18, I thought, well this guy’s full of crap.
