More quotes by Aisha Tyler
I love to be busy and be challenged. I'm my happiest when I'm under pressure and almost overwhelmed by how much I have to get done.
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
Pop culture is great, but it can be bad, at times.
Aisha Tyler
I don't want to be pandered to, so I try not to pander.
Aisha Tyler
When I get old and slow down I want to look behind me and see all the fire and the wreckage and no stone left unturned.
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
I don't know if I was always an open person, but I think stand-up comics specifically have this way of running towards embarrassing things - whereas regular people tend to run away - because the embarrassing story is always going to be the really funny story.
Aisha Tyler
Marriage isn't a carnival ride.
Aisha Tyler
Every ethnic group has this where people within it will try and tell each other how they should be. So what I would say to other people is to just embrace who you are because you will become instantly happier.
Aisha Tyler
I talk to grown-ups who are out to have a good time and they want to be spoken to in a different way. I don't want to be pandered to, so I try not to pander.
Aisha Tyler
I grew up on the back of a motorcycle - my dad didn't have a car until I was a teenager. And then my closest friend from grade school was a guy.
Aisha Tyler
I love being married. I love my husband. I think married people always have that thing where they think that the grass is greener on the single side, but all my single friends are like, Trust me, you don't want to have to actually interact with these people.
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
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
I'm my own boss and my boss is a total ass.
Aisha Tyler
I always wanted to be as busy as possible so that if one job went away I'd still have plenty of other things to do.
Aisha Tyler
Karaoke is the great equalizer.
Aisha Tyler
I've always been a gamer, and I had a period where I was gaming at a really hardcore level.
Aisha Tyler
I visualize myself winning the Olympic Pentathlon, inventing a phone that can be controlled by brain waves, or doing the laundry. I do not actually DO these things, but I see myself doing them, and that is almost MORE satisfying, because I am also lying down.
Aisha Tyler
When I was young I thought, 'Yeah, people don't see, they're not recognizing how funny I am, and how talented I am'. And the guys that mentored me were like, 'You just have to keep getting up'. And I look back and they were right. They were all right.
