men enemy blame
Until as women we all say, No! We are not going to starve ourselves, nothing is going to change. We're our own worse enemies sometimes but I still blame men.
men worst-enemy blame
We're our own worst enemies a lot of the time, but I still blame men.
wings enemy ideologues
I guess intractable right-wing ideologues are my mortal enemy.
great seen
I've seen other comics, with great pleasure, watching their own specials, and I don't know how or why they do it.
comedian life people political politics word
Sometimes people say I'm a political comedian, which, actually I'm not. I'm a comedian who sometimes discusses politics, culture - again, the word 'politics' to me is just life.
came happened hollywood interest movies trying
I don't think Hollywood was trying to do anything with me. In fact, they lost interest pretty quick. I think I got lucky, briefly, in the '90s, and it just so happened that those movies were the opportunities that came my way. Then it just kind of stopped.
I don't enjoy sparring with the audience. It devastates me.
commercial nobody starts
Nobody ever starts out to make a mediocre, commercial film. You always think it's going to be something. And then, once you're done with your shooting, you have no control. You're just done, as an actor.
peace trying
When Communist U.S.S.R. was a superpower, the world was better off. The right-wing media is trying to marginalize the peace movement.
love pleasing tempts
I love a nice cooking show. It's as aesthetically pleasing as any other thing that tempts the senses, I suppose.
cut lip
The glass is always half empty. And cracked. And I just cut my lip on it. And chipped a tooth.
bunch certain quite racists seeing
You know, there's nothing more interesting than seeing a bunch of racists become confused and angry at a speech they're not quite certain what he's saying.
against attached dinner life personal somebody street table trying whether wing york
I'm not specifically attached to anything other than trying to, in my personal life, fight against where I see right wing thinking. Whether it be around my dinner table or on the street or somebody reading the New York Post.
bit thrill
I remember the old Times Square from when I was younger, and there was a seedy thrill to it. Some of that is gone, which I have a little bit of nostalgia for.
