Personal Quotes
During his standup routine, "A lot of people do standup comedy in hopes of landing a television series. Well, I'm just the opposite. I've already had a TV series and now I'm doing standup. If this doesn't work, soon I'll be doing security with Gary Coleman."

"I hope people stop remembering me as Screech and remember me as Dustin Diamond. I think my stand-up routine is helping that."

"Screech and I have a lot in common. We are both strange, funny, interested in computers, good at chess, and chick magnets."
