    • Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart.
    • Whatever it is you’re seeking won’t come in the form you’re expecting.
    • Nobody likes being alone that much. I don’t go out of my way to make friends, that’s all. It just leads to disappointment.
    • No matter how much suffering you went through, you never wanted to let go of those memories.

    • Almost seventy years later I remember clearly how the magic of translating the words in books into images enriched my life, breaking the barriers of time and space.
    • Memory is a snare, pure and simple; it alters, it subtly rearranges the past to fit the present.

    • Writing fiction is the best thing there is because absolutely everything is possible!

    • If the Old Testament were a reliable guide in the matter of capital punishment, half the people in the United States would have to be killed tomorrow.

    • One of the nice things about problems is that a good many of them do not exist except in our imaginations.

    10 top quotes by don delillo

    • How I would enjoy being told the novel is dead. How liberating to work in the margins, outside a central perception. You are the ghoul of literature.
    • No sense of the irony of human experience, that we are the highest form of life on earth, and yet ineffably sad because we know what no other animal knows, that we must die.
    • Sometimes I see something so moving I know I’m not supposed to linger. See it and leave. If you stay too long, you wear out the wordless shock. Love it and trust it and leave.
    • There are dead stars that still shine because their light is trapped in time. Where do I stand in this light, which does not strictly exist?
    • Even when you self-destruct, you want to fail more, lose more, die more than others, stink more than others.
    • It was important for him to believe that he’d spent his life among people who kept missing the point.
    • What good is knowledge if it just floats in the air? It goes from computer to computer. It changes and grows every second of every day. But nobody actually knows anything.
    • You need to know things the others don’t know. It’s what no one knows about you that allows you to know yourself.
    • That’s why people take vacations. No to relax or find excitement or see new places. To escape the death that exists in routine things.
    • American writers ought to stand and live in the margins, and be more dangerous.

    • When you are in a room and your job is to write jokes 10 hours a day, your mind starts going to strange places.

    • Religion notoriously claims that they invented morality, they didn’t. Morality exists in animals, ya know.
    • Sarah Palin is very pro-life of course, unless the life is that of an Iraqi civilian or a wolf running frantically from a roaring helicopter while being strafed with ribbons of automatic weapons fire.
    • The problem with the cable networks is the lack of money, not from personal income but as far as show budget.
    • We never really tried to shock for shock’s sake on ‘Family Guy’. If something was horribly offensive and shocking, we would put it in if it was also hysterically funny.
    • I had – I was pretty hell bent on getting into the cartoon business specifically as an artist from the get-go.
    • There was no joke I could make that was too offensive. I can actually remember at least one time where my mother told me something that, I was like, ‘whoa!’

    10 fierce & inspirational quotes by barbra streisand

    10 great quotes by bo burnham

    • I was doing theater in my high school, and I started writing sort of silly songs on the piano backstage in summer theater. I eventually put them online and started getting this little following.
    • Postmodern comedy doesn’t work well with very old audiences, because it’s making fun of the comedy they enjoy.
    • I think the comedy clubs tend to homogenize the acts a little bit, because they force them to be palatable in way too many environments.
    • I have a pretty good math mind, so I can see patterns, but I don’t have a great ear. It’s like a tragedy – I can see so much more natural musical ability in so many other people.
    • At once I feel that comedy is this amazing sort of transcendent thing, and I’m also open to the fact that maybe it’s just an evolutionary hiccup, something that upright apes do in their free time.
    • I misdirect the audience, so they have no idea where they are or who they’re listening to.
    • I’ve always liked the format of YouTube, sharing things for free, which is a nice exchange between people.
    • For me, if you distill comedy down, it is surprise and the unexpected. That has to be it on its most base level, in any form.
    • I try and write satire that’s well-intentioned. But those intentions have to be hidden. It can’t be completely clear, and that’s what makes it comedy.
    • I’ve found nothing but support and generosity from older comics. I think comedians are a lot nicer than the stigma is, at least from my experience.
