agree assure believe people president press speak
I believe that we're doing the right thing. The press doesn't agree with the president on these things. The people I speak to assure me he is doing the right thing.
american-comedian people
People want their 15 minutes and are willing to do anything to get it.
fall people
People love to see people fall.
thinking people my-friends
I really never thought people would think that I was funny, I thought (my friends) thought I was funny because I was their friend, but other people would just think I was an asshole. I was at least partly right.
believe people upset
I have this thing built into my contract that the club has to put up a sign that says my act "contains the strongest language and material content imaginable," but, believe it or not, I still get complaints. People want you to be what they want you to be. If they see you on TV and that's what they like, they want you to be EXACTLY like that when they see you live. And if you're not, some of them get upset.
thinking play people
If someone plays a brooding actor in a film, people think they're brooding all the time.
lying smell people
People for the most part can smell lies, at least I thought that until I saw audiences applaud at Carlos Mencia.
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.
thinking talking people
My company is called Talking Monkey, Inc. It's because that's what I think all people are: talking monkeys.
men people void
People are scared man, they're scared of the void.
thinking worry people
To me, comedy is a great occupation because I don't really worry that much about what other people think of me.
lying smell people
People for the most part can smell lies.
years careers people
When you snatch little pieces of other people's lives and try to palm them off as your own, that's more disgusting than anything. Robin Williams is a huge thief. Denis Leary is a huge thief. His whole stand-up career is based on Bill Hicks, a brilliant guy who died years ago.
art games people
I've done jiujitsu a huge chunk of my life, and I try to spend a lot of time educating people on the nuances, the subtleness of the ground game. It's a big part of mixed martial arts.
