If it wasn't for the coffee, I'd have no identifiable personality whatsover.
Whenever I think of the past, it brings back so many memories.
Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the furthest thing from it. Because cynics don't learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness: a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say 'no.' But saying 'yes' begins things. Saying 'yes' is how things grow.
The digital camera is a great invention because it allows us to reminisce. Instantly.
Everyone looks so much better when they smile.
I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel alone.

Someone once said that to make a regular person laugh, you need to dress a guy up like an old lady and push him down the stairs. To make a comedy writer laugh, you have to push a real old lady down the stairs. I don't know who that's attributed to. I think it's Aristophanes. Or Catherine the Great.
There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.
It's amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper.
Taste every fruit of every tree in the garden at least once. It is an insult to creation not to experience it fully. Temperance is wickedness.

If you own a home with wheels on it and several cars without, you just might be a redneck.
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

The power of visibility can never be underestimated.
I like coffee because it gives me the illusion that I might be awake.
Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.
I just love bossy women. I could be around them all day. To me, bossy is not a pejorative term at all. It means somebody's passionate and engaged and ambitious and doesn't mind leading.
There is no such thing as death; life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves.
Competition is the death of art.
A recent police study found that you're much more likely to get shot by a fat cop if you run.

People who throw kisses are hopelessly lazy.
When people refer to 'Back in the Day,' it was a Wednesday. Just a little fun fact for you.
A rich man is nothing but a poor man with money.
If you're going to do something tonight that you'll be sorry for tomorrow morning, sleep late.
I would say don't take advice from people like me who have gotten very lucky. We're very biased. You know, like Taylor Swift telling you to follow your dreams is like a lottery winner telling you, 'Liquidize your assets; buy Powerball tickets - it works!'
You know what's funny to me? Attitude.
The whole institution of marriage itself really has no place in a progressive society.
When I eventually met Mr. Right I had no idea that his first name was Always.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.
I'm not drunk onstage, although I've done that a couple of times when I was younger. It's partly just the way I talk - I talk like somebody in a rocking chair. I'm your 150-year-old grandmother.
I had written for Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman in the past. Jimmy had a different voice, and different priorities. He couldn't be the bad guy in the joke; he couldn't upset people, really.
Even nice things don't make you happy when you're tired.
It's difficult to believe in yourself because the idea of self is an artificial construction. You are, in fact, part of the glorious oneness of the universe. Everything beautiful in the world is within you.

The glass is always half empty. And cracked. And I just cut my lip on it. And chipped a tooth.
Rich people never go to war. You ask a college kid to go to war, and he's like, 'Umm, I'm taking this sociology class, and I think war is, like, really stupid, and my roommate's, like, half Afghani, so it's going to cause some static.'
The villain of any story is often the most compelling character.

We live in the age of entitlement, as opposed to enlightenment.
When I was a kid, 'Land of the Lost' was my favorite show, just because it was - in the landscape of Saturday morning cartoons - it was so unique. It was a live-action show and kids were in it, these creatures, these Sleestaks and dinosaurs. Every week was a different adventure. I couldn't wait. I loved it so much.
Fereydun, that's my dad's name. My grandmother, my dad's mom, when she was pregnant, she was dating a man from Persia, a Persian gentleman. It wasn't his child, but he was still very supportive and said, 'Hey, this is a great name,' and so it stuck. So that's what she named him.
