"The best way to get people to say what they really think is to make them think they're not being recorded."

"I always try to find the humanity in my characters, even the most outrageous ones."

"I'm not a journalist. I'm a comedian. My job is to provoke, to entertain, and to make people think."

"My work is often misinterpreted, but that's part of the fun."

"I'm not trying to be a moral arbiter. I'm just trying to hold a mirror up to society."
