QUOTES by Margaret Cho
Find most favourite and famour Authors from A.A Milne to Zoe Kravitz.
People drain me, even the closest of friends, and I find loneliness to be the best state in the union to live in.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
For women in my family, in Korean culture, women are really valued in their youth, and then when they get older, it's like they almost become irrelevant.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I don't really know what 'selling out' is exactly. I would sell out if I could, but nobody's buying it. I would love to go mainstream, but my comedy is too edgy. It's always too dirty. It's always too filthy. I'm dying to sell out. But I love doing comedy, I love touring, and I think I would do everything for free.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Try to love someone who you want to hate, because they are just like you, somewhere inside, in a way you may never expect, in a way that resounds so deeply within you that you cannot believe it.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I grew up a witness to gay politics in its early days. I remember seeing Harvey Milk and been moved by him.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
My mother goes crazy over babies. Some people just do. They love 'em! I never have. Babies scare me more than anything. They're tiny and fragile and impressionable - and someone else's! As much as I hate borrowing stuff, that is how much I hate holding other people's babies. It's too much responsibility.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I was raised to be self-conscious about weight. Then as I got older and started doing television, it became a career issue, like, 'You have to lose weight or you'll lose that job.'
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I think self-deprecation is such a disease, and I want to cure everybody of it and so that's my contribution.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
When you feel powerful, you are willing to stand up for your rights, you are willing to stand up for what you believe in, you're more willing to stand up and be counted.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
You don't become a Republican until you lose all your baby teeth and fall down a lot and get the croup and then become angry and bitter.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
My boyfriend and I live together, which means we don't have sex - ever. Now that the milk is free, we've both become lactose intolerant.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I thought I was so ugly for so long, and I wasted so much of my life on this dumb notion.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I am star-struck but also I've known a lot of people for a long time. Like I'm super star-struck by Grant Lee Phillips and Jon Brion but I've known them for 17 years. So it's kinda like weird to be star-struck still, but I still am!
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I mean, what's great about touring is that's what you do. You're in a constant state of motion and then you stop to do a show and you move onto the next city. All you have to do is do the show. That's the only responsibility that you have.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Thankfully, beauty is easier to remove than apply, and a swipe of demaquillage in the right direction and you are you once again.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
If public figures came out of the closet, then the LGBT kids who saw them on TV would feel safe before they even knew why they felt dangerous. Maybe if enough people came out of the closet, gay kids would never feel dangerous. Maybe we could have a world where we could all just live. We may not all agree, but why can't we just all live?
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I can't drag myself away from 'Final Cut Pro.' It is a digital video editing system. I am obsessed with it, but I am always away from home, and I can't use it.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I punished myself and avoided my reflection in mirrors and any windows. I would see myself reflected back, and I would look away, trying to pretend I didn't exist, because I hated myself so much.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
People are really terrified of me. I don't know why, I'm very nice, but people are very intimidated by me.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I'm lucky that I have good genetics. Like you said, it just gets better as I get older.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
It is tragic that people who are incarcerated are unable to vote. They are probably the most important voices to listen to because they can tell us what we need to change.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Sometimes the only way to deal with horrific things in life is through a dark sense of humor.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Why can't all different types of women be considered beautiful? Why can't we can't we all be considered possible love interests?
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Privacy and security are those things you give up when you show the world what makes you extraordinary.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I'm taking a lot of my favorite artists, different people, my favorite music and marrying that with what I do as a comic. It's very collaborative, arty, fun and cool.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
The stuff I do and say onstage I can do easily. As a performer, that comes easily. But being social offstage, it's not easy for me.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I'm writing a record of comedy songs. I'm doing all these collaborations with artists. I bring them lyrics and they write the music to it.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
My former bullies pay extra to come backstage and meet me after shows, and I pretend not to know them in front of their friends. It is the most divine pleasure to exact the revenge of the brutalized child that resides within.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
The newest victims of the nation's foreclosure crisis are pets, which is extremely distressing to me.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Usually, if you smile at them and show some interest in the toy, they will give it to you. That's a straight up Democrat move!
Quote by -Margaret Cho
To start telling people that you're beautiful, or just feel beautiful, just start acting like you are the most beautiful woman in the world. And it really improves everything! Because your sort of psyche responds to it - like this is truthful!
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I can never tell when something is funny. I just have to do it onstage and find out.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
To me, marriage is really important and what we build families on. That's why gay marriage is really important.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I have learned to love that which is meant to harm me, so that I can stand in the way of those who are less strong. I can take the bullets for those who aren't able to.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
In the early '90s, there was such a limited idea of what you could see on TV.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Being called ugly and fat and disgusting to look at from the time I could barely understand what the words meant has scarred me so deep inside that I have learned to hunt, stalk, claim, own and defend my own loveliness.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I am into belly dancing. I used to only hang with comics. Now I have friends who are dancers, and my whole house has a harem feel.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Korean children get a lot of fuss made over them, I guess because life was tough in the old country, and it was a big deal if you survived. There's a big party thrown when you are 100 days old, followed by another when you make it to one whole year.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
I always felt like an outsider growing up. In school, I felt like I never fit in. But it didn't help when my mother, instead of buying me glue for school projects, would tell me to just use rice.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
The incognito of lower class employment is an effective cloak for any dagger one might wish to hide.
Quote by -Margaret Cho
Maybe I wanted to hear it so badly that my ears betrayed my mind in order to secure my heart.
