You feel kind of weird cheering for chaos. There is that sense that the crazier it gets, the better off we are.

It's really what serves me best.
Jon StewartI remember having a grade-school teacher I thought was a hard-ass. When you're that age, you think the guy is Himmler. Then you visit him eight years later and he's wearing polyester pants, he's four foot eight, you think he's gay, and you're like, 'Are you the guy I was afraid of?
Jon StewartI have to say, as someone who is not a Christian, itโs hard for me to believe Christians are a persecuted people in America. God willing, maybe one of you one day will even rise up and get to be president of this country โ or maybe forty-four in a row.
