I think the genetics of being Irish are that you sort of prefer when it's rainy and cloudy. It's just genetic.

I cannot believe that in all the years that there have been female stand-ups, there has never been a show just for them.

I do have a lot of female friends who are stand-ups and also women who are actresses and also happen to have an act.

I feel like I'm the luckiest actress in the world.

I feel like people are funny, and women are people, so I'm sick of the distinction.

I love Tig Notaro; I just think she's so awesome.

I think comedy is funnier when it's real.

I think the whole concept that women aren't funny is dead. It's over; it's done.

It's easy for people to strike if they're not working on a regular basis.

Obviously I've gone out of my way in my career to not look good, so it's always nice to, every once in a while, get the opposite going.

Well, one of the things I love about 'The Office' is that it has so much heart.

'TV Guide' is smart to aim toward women. More women will go there to find out what's on - just like when guys won't ask for directions, a woman will break out the map.
