L'histoire derrière cette citation
Poehler closed her speech with this deceptively simple advice, building on lessons she'd learned from years of improvisational comedy in Chicago and performing live on Saturday Night Live. She described a time on SNL when she was nervous, looked into the eyes of the host — Donald Trump, who was wearing an elaborate chicken suit — and instantly felt better because he looked so stupid. The broader point: whether you're terrified or confident, human connection is the answer. You can't do it alone.
