- Paul: (on writing an episode for his The Office character Toby) I guess my mind jumps to other people first. As an actor, which is just a very small percentage of me, I don't feel Toby while I'm writing. It's the hardest of the characters to access.

- Paul: (on The Office showrunners needing a specific joke) If they needed a really dark, twisted, suicidal joke they might come to me.
