I always say three things make a writer: inspiration obviously perspiration doing the work. But the third is desperation. I'm not really fit for anything else or to have a real job. That fear drives me. The pressure has always been self inflicted.

There's such big pressure on people who are incredibly famous on those who have people sitting outside their front door and taking photos every time they move.

Being rich and famous isn't all happiness and at times the pressures have got to me.

There's always going to be that pressure when you're in front of the camera. When you're famous it's just an extreme version of reality and there's a pressure to look a certain way.

I felt no pressure that my grandfather was famous and my uncle was famous.

There is less pressure as a character actor. It generally means that you will be acting for all of your life which is my intention. It is not my intention to just be a rich and famous person that would be pretty boring.

There's more pressure to be famous for being yourself than if you're being a character.

Fame is a lot of pressure especially when you're responsible for your entire family. Financially emotionally - everything.

Doing Saturday Night Live definitely affects my relationship with my girlfriend and with my family because you feel so much pressure to do well that night. But I think everyone's grown to accept that and so they give me my space at the show.

I work more now because at this time of my life I am not disturbed from my aim by outside pressures such as family passionate relationships dealing with 'who am I?' - those complications when one is searching for one's self.
