Comedy Quote by Maya Rudolph
“The comedy was always there. There's this moment I remember from when I was seven or eight: I was with a friend and she started to cry, and I just started talking in a funny voice. I thought, 'This is much better than feeling bad; I want to make her feel good.' And, she started to laugh.”
