“The only thing I knew in the world as a little kid was comedy. And no other kids in my school cared about it at all. There was no one to talk about it with. You know, we're in a geek culture now where comedy is so giant. I'm one of the people that, you know, works on Funny or Die. And there is just a giant culture of comedy nerds. But back then, I was alone, and I had a little confidence about it because I felt like, this is my thing, this is the only thing that only I know about.”

But my humor, I think, came from wanting to disarm people before they hit me.” quote by Judd Apatow](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/b6a/judd-apatow-1471_beatnik_my-dad-was-a-big-fan-of-comedy-he-wanted_87831.jpg)
