If I can make a teacher's salary doing comedy, I think that's better than being a teacher.
My first love is acting, not directing.
My main interest, however, was in economics, not law.
The truth of the matter is I stayed in L.A. raising my children, and when they went to college, I packed my bags along with them and came to New York and looked for parts in the theatre, because that's always what I preferred doing.
Directing is much more satisfying to me than acting.
I have so much more fun doing stand-up. I can't even begin to explain.
I love the theater, but if I had to choose, I would choose a film at this time in my life. Something meaty, to sink my teeth into.
I'd much rather do an obviously commercial writing project than get a day job.
I like acting better than anything else, but, you know, directing's good.
I loved every minute of working in wardrobe. But I love being an actress so much more. I don't think I was very good in costume, so it's better that I prefer being an actress.
I'm much more comfortable in a meritocracy and in reward for good work as opposed to a political environment, where I feel like all of that can be confused.
I'd rather direct than produce. Any day. And twice on Sunday.
I like working in television a lot. It's nice to have a place to go every day and a group of people to hang out with and work alongside with a common goal. But I think I'll always love stand-up more, because there's so much to discover. But you cannot beat television money with a stick. Not with a stick.
I love being a businessman much more than being a hacker.
I would prefer to have a more appealing job. If I could still change careers, I would prefer it. This unfortunate art is made for long beards and ugly faces rather than for a relatively well-endowed woman.
Now I'm kind of established as a director, I much prefer directing to writing.
I'd rather sell groundnuts in my village than to play for a pathetic team like Chelsea.
I gravitate to the roles, not necessarily television or film. It's just the fact that, for me, the most interesting roles have been in television.
I like interiors as much as exteriors but 'interior designer' just sounds naff as a job.
I would rather be a security guard than a rock star.
Better a street-sweeper in Mexico than a filmmaker in Germany!
If I had to choose between a great acting job and a good directing job, I'd choose the directing job.
I prefer directing to producing as it is far more satisfying.
Modeling is a lot of fun, but I prefer acting. It's so much fun to get to play different characters and transform into someone else for a while.
I wish the country had fewer lawyers and more engineers.
