Lewis Black on America
The most important part of travel, is when you come home. Because, that’s when you see your country with new eyes.
I was amazed to realize that we’re the only country that tells the rest of the world, on a nearly constant basis, that we’re the greatest country on Earth.
And that is a little fuckin’ obnoxious.
And they know it’s obnoxious. Because, if you were in an office, and there was someone there who came in every day and said, “I’m the greatest fucker here! And you sniveling shits would die without me!” I can guarantee that by the end of the week you’d have killed him and eaten him, just to try to possess his power…

Dennis Miller on name calling
And yet this is what it has come to in later-day America: everybody’s broken off into these petulant little travis-bickle tribes, constantly walking the perimeter of their own damaged self-esteem; ever vigilant against an incursion by “they,” “them,” the “other guys.”
Everybody is encouraged to be touchy. Everybody, that is, but me. I’m a white Anglo-Saxon male — I’m everybody’s asshole.
Black people think I’m physically deficient and oppressive. Gay people think I’m latently homosexual and overly macho. Women think I’m oafish and horny. And Asians think I’m lazy and stupid.
Hey, you think you have an axe to grind? I’m fuckin’ Paul Bunion over here.
And you know something, there is a principal of reciprocity here. If I’m expected to be genial, I expect that from the rest of you.
Why are we so hung up on the name calling?

The Path
“I asked God for more patience, the ability to trust others, and the power to love unconditionally… so He sent me a wife.”
Although some may laugh at this stabbing humor, there is a universal truth hidden deep from the eyes of the shallow. And that truth is:
The only way to attain what we don’t have is to learn it or earn it through often-hard life experiences.

Life
John Lennon once said “Life is what happens while we are busy making other plans.”
I think he was wrong.
Life is what happens to us while imagining it were something entirely different.

My Hobby
I can’t believe that the hobby I used to do in my free time has become the job that consumes ALL of my free time now.
