My favorite six words in recovery are: trust God, clean house, and help others.

A lot of people think that addiction is a choice. A lot of people think it's a matter of will. That has not been my experience. I don't find it to have anything to do with strength.

When I was younger, I used humour as a tool to avoid getting too serious with people - if there was deep emotional stuff going on, then I would crack a joke to defuse the situation.

I have a huge interest in hockey because I grew up in Canada, where it's kind of the law that you love hockey.

The key to sitcom success is miserable people. If you see a happy couple, it's just gone, like when Sam and Diane got together on Cheers.

My feeling on therapy is it's a luxury, and if you're fortunate enough to get some smart people to talk to about life, then that's fortunate and you should go for it.

To be a comedian, you have to have some darkness behind it. I certainly draw on my past, and it helps.

I have a well-documented history of trouble with intimacy.

My sense of style is an old Polo shirt, jeans and, unfortunately for the longest time, white running shoes, which was not attractive. The one thing I've learned about clothes is to ask a girl.

I have what I like to call a 'chinneck.' My chin just flows rather easily into my neck.

After I got my first laugh on stage, I was hooked.

I love the idea of 'the one' but I actually believe that there isn't a Miss Right. There are 12,000 Miss Rights out there and it's all timing.

As an actor, being on autopilot is the worst thing possible.

I got sober because I was worried I was going to die next year.

I would like you all to give me a round of applause as I have not crashed my car in over 15 months.

As for my personal life, I'd love to start a family of my own. I think I'd make a great dad, and I think shortly I would make a great husband.

Nine times out of 10, women don't want to fix a problem, they just want to be understood. I'll never get that.

I need a woman to have a quirky sense of humor. There's a bunch of jokes I use, and if she doesn't get them, she's probably not for me.

'The Whole Nine Yards' I liked right away. It was kind of a dark comedy at first. And just the idea of being in a movie with Bruce Willis was pretty exciting.

I think if you look back at all those great comedies on television in the past, it's all lovable losers that gathered together - 'Taxi' and 'Cheers,' 'Seinfeld' and 'Friends.'

When I was, like, 15, I realized there could be a career in making people laugh - like, you could get paid to do it. That was insane to me.

I certainly wear my heart on my sleeve, and I think that comes out in the characters that I play. There's a yearning, or something, that comes out of me that people relate to.

I think we need to educate our doctors about addiction.

I used to spend a lot of time just thinking about myself, thinking that the party started when I showed up.
