children feels travesty
I really feel like it's a travesty to make a child famous. I really do.
long knees scar
On my left knee I have a long scar from an ACL operation. I've had both knees reconstructed.
lying smell people
People for the most part can smell lies, at least I thought that until I saw audiences applaud at Carlos Mencia.
cds done records
So many times I've done a CD, and then the week after I record it, I've got this new tagline that's killer. And it makes the whole bit better. It happens all the time. But that's just the process of comedy.
comic
Any comic like myself owes everything he has to Lenny Bruce. He was the originator. The godfather of uncensored American stand-up is clearly Lenny Bruce.
fun believe people
Stand-up is still my favorite, but the podcast is a close second. It's so fun, and it's given me the oppor-tunity to have three-hour conversations with people I wouldn't have otherwise been able to talk to. When I talked to Maynard Keenan from Tool, I almost couldn't believe it was happening.
relationship girlfriend lying
If you can lie, you can act, and if you can lie to crazy girlfriends, you can act under pressure.
thinking talking people
My company is called Talking Monkey, Inc. It's because that's what I think all people are: talking monkeys.
I had a sense of who I was before I got famous.
real advancement answers
Despite all the advancements in science, and all things about religion that are disproved it still marches on. The bottom line is that the only real, absolutely provable answers about life and our place in the universe are provided by science, and religion has been holding down science since day one.
hate men
When women go to see men strip, we never accuse you of hating men.
men people void
People are scared man, they're scared of the void.
hurt hunger-strike careers
Dick Gregory was a great comedian who went and got arrested, did hunger strikes, protests. It never hurt his career to be outspoken.
world glaciers etch-a-sketch
If the world was an etch-a-sketch, glaciers are the big shake.
