A celebrity is any well-known TV or movie star who looks like he spends more than two hours working on his hair. – Steve Martin
I did stand-up comedy for 18 years. Ten of those years were spent learning, four years were spent refining, and four years were spent in wild success. I was seeking comic originality, and fame fell on me as a byproduct. The course was more plodding than heroic. – Steve Martin
