thinking people forever
I think that one of the reasons why people look towards the end of humanity is that people are afraid to die alone. If you die alone, the people you love will miss you, or if they die, you miss them - the sorrow is inevitable. When you truly love someone, the thought of losing them forever is horrible.
hero suspense-novels stories
Be the hero of your own story.
civilization bullshit foundation
Our entire civilization is built on a foundation of unfixable bullshit.
moving houston starting-out
If I could, I would live in Houston, and I would encourage any comic starting out looking for a good place to develop to move there.
character writing laughing
What people like are things to laugh at. Funny shows. It's all in the execution, the writing and the characters, not the setting. And the writing and the execution and the characters are GREAT on (Everybody Loves Raymond).
thinking ice ideas
We're constantly re-evaluating the potential for life. We're finding it where we didn't think it could exist, such as volcanic vents and other extreme conditions like under arctic ice. We're finding life in these incredibly harsh and dynamic conditions, so we're having to re-evaluate our own ideas of what's possible on this planet alone.
talking laughing made
I had seen movies before that that had made me laugh, but I had never seen anything even remotely close to as funny as Richard Pryor was, just standing there talking.
ideas long consciousness
Most of my bits are long stream-of-consciousness- type things, and when I'm doing them onstage, other places to take the theme or idea will hit me, and I just go with it.
moving people machines
The planet's spinning a thousand miles an hour around this gigantic nuclear explosion while these people roll these machines with rubber tires over this hard surface that we've laid down over the planet so that we can easily move ourselves back and forth.
comedian lines actors
I don't really like actors. Actors are like terrible comedians with no punch lines. It's all about them. They talk about themselves all the time. They bore the sh - t out of you.
hurt careers doors
It never hurt Lenny Bruce's career to get arrested for swearing. It did back in the time, but he broke those doors down by doing the stuff that he believed in.
thinking people realizing
I think it would do a lot of people good just to realize how vulnerable they are.
smart people houston
Houston people are way cool. They're smart, they know how to have a good time, and they have the hottest chicks on the planet there.
people understanding growth
It's been one of the most important tools for me in personal growth for understanding myself, how I am, and what effect I do have on other people.
