I would say most comedians have a very cynical worldview of the way the world can work. It's almost like if you didn't, you couldn't be a comedian.

New York Stat agreed to pay $12 million to settle a lawsuit filed three decades ago by inmates swept up in the bloody 1971 revolt at Attica prison. The settlement will be paid in the form of chocolate bars and packs of Newports that can be picked up in the commissary.

I'm just another guy who thinks he's smarter than he is, in a long line of them.

People say history was written by the winners. No, it wasn't. It was written by the bullies.

What I love about comedians is their instinct is always to go against the grain. Their whole existence is pointing out the elephant in the room. Already you can see audiences are pushing back, but we're the ones who really can take it more than anybody.

The only people who like to live alone more than comics are priests.

Stand-up is live, so I'm used to being live for most of my career. It's interesting.
