More quotes by Aisha Tyler
I like to be nice. I want to be a hero. I want to save people. Or just kill zombies, because they deserve it, because they're already dead and they can't feel it. They don't have feelings.
Aisha Tyler
No one wants to hear about how awesome you were people want to hear about the time you blew it. So I think the longer you do stand-up, the more comfortable you are. You stop wanting to hide your foibles and instead want to show who you are.
Aisha Tyler
So much of a stand-up's life is doing live radio and having to be funny and quick on the spot with these strangers, and sort of surgical in terms of how funny I can be in three minutes.
Aisha Tyler
I think I was only attracted to drunken douches before I got married.
Aisha Tyler
I'm sure I had low-level scurvy all of my childhood.
Aisha Tyler
I spent most of my seventh grade summer dehydrated, green-tongued, and smelling like a Malaysian whorehouse.

Aisha Tyler
But I love stand-up, and it's where I came from creatively, so it's something I never want to walk away from.
Aisha Tyler
Successful people just don't let failure define them or keep them from doing what they want to do. For example, I'd have people come up to me after my shows, and they'd say they want to do stand-up but are scared they're going to fail. I'd tell them, You are going to fail, and anyone who is success has powered through many, many failures.
Aisha Tyler
Pop culture hales you and wants you to fail.
Aisha Tyler
I'm just going to be the best version of me that I could possibly be and be as funny as I possibly can. I've just got to be myself and hopefully people will find me. And my audience did find me.
Aisha Tyler
They always say some women like to fix people. I don't like to fix people, but you like a challenge.
Aisha Tyler
I'm black, and black don't crack. It does droop.
Aisha Tyler
I am absolutely a Giants fan and I'm a Dynasty baby so I was a 49ers fan for a long time.
Aisha Tyler
On general principle, I boycott shows that don't employ actors.
Aisha Tyler
Sometimes the mistake I see people make is thinking that they're always going to be up, and I think that's impossible for anyone.
Aisha Tyler
I think diversity in television is important. It's not about trying to fill a quota or satisfy some idea of diversity, but I think what diversity brings to any daypart is more eyeballs, just more opportunity.
Aisha Tyler
I was born in California, raised a vegetarian, and love science fiction, so don't tell me how I need to be in order to fit your standards. When I was younger, those kinds of comments bothered me, but eventually got to a point where I realized I wasn't going to change who I was.
