People always ask me, Were you funny as a child? Well, no, I was an accountant. – Ellen DeGeneres
In the beginning there was nothing. God said, “Let there be light!” And there was light. There was still nothing, but you could see it a whole lot better. – Ellen DeGeneres
So many people prefer to live in drama because its comfortable. Its like someone staying in a bad marriage or relationship – its actually easier to stay because they know what to expect every day, versus leaving and not knowing what to expect. – Ellen DeGeneres
Comedy is so subjective. You could be in a room with 400 people laughing at a joke and you could just not think its funny. Youre just sitting there like, Am I in the twilight zone? Why is everyone laughing? Its such a personal thing. People have such a personal visceral response to comedy. – Todd Phillips
