In most cases being a good boss means hiring talented people and then getting out of their way.

I get on really well with Katie (Leung), she’s a really cool girl.

Does anyone remember laughter?

Any woman who diets all the time can’t help but be grouchy. Nobody can be amusing or entertaining on a diet.

Trying to be a leader in a sort of very atypical workplace like ‘Saturday Night Live’ forces you to realize that no one wants you to be their leader. If you can help them get their thing on TV or whatever, they want that. But no adult is looking for a role model.

In L.A., unless you’ve just won an Oscar or you’re Mr. Studio Head, no one talks to you. Even at parties.

I don’t take myself that seriously. I’ve just had a good, big life. It’s a big one.

Amy Poehler made it clear that she wasn’t there to be cute. She wasn’t there to play wives or girlfriends in the boys’ scenes. She was there to do what she wanted to do and she did not f**king care if you like it.

I’ve deliberately tried to calm myself down because eventually I want to be a good role model to my kids.

I’ve sort of heard that “it” girl thing, but not really. Hearing it from a few people doesn’t solidify it in my mind and I wouldn’t know how to solidify that title. It’s so elusive and what does it mean, I don’t know?

I always dream about other musicians. And they’re never interested in hanging out with us. It’s like being at school and the bigger boys don’t want to play with you!

I’m just a public-schoolboy. I’ve got a degree. I’m from a middle-class family in Devon. I’ve got no story.

The blues was bleeding the same blood as me.

There’s something timeless and important about making people laugh, about being the right spot in their day.

(on his feuds with many of his fellow rappers) If they keep comin’ at me, I’ll just keep responding back until they don’t exist anymore. I got the time and energy to ruin what is left of their careers, if they want to do that.
