I’d love to be able to say that I’m just a pure artist and that awards are meaningless, but getting the nomination is cool. It does feel good. Partly because there’s a lot of insecurity in being in this business, because it’s based on people’s like or dislike of comedy, which is pretty fickle. And I’ve got kids to feed. But this feels like, hopefully, you’ve got a ladder underneath you, rather than a frayed rope and a chasm.

The spikes that I put on the rocks underneath me are pretty solid ones, so when I do fall and I shall, maybe one of those spikes will catch me and I won’t fall as far down.

Comedian and actor (and writer and director and producer and editor) LOUIS C.K., on his Best Actor Emmy nod for Louie.
