More quotes by Aisha Tyler
I liked comedy, but didn't know it was something you could do for a living. I actually wanted to be an attorney.
Aisha Tyler
I can tell you this: Stand-up is not glamorous.
Aisha Tyler
I have one girlfriend who is dating right now - she's divorced - and she's on Tinder, so we play Tinder. I know that's not a real game, but it's my favorite thing to do.
Aisha Tyler
Am I going to complain about being typecast as smart? I don't think so.
Aisha Tyler
I think I was only attracted to drunken douches before I got married.

I don't believe in superheroes but I love Batman movies. There's a part of every person that is entertained by the idealistic, the fantastic.

I thought I was gonna be an attorney, so I went to Dartmouth and I was a government major and I minored in environmental policy, and I didn't do anything academically around the arts.
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.

Karaoke is the great equalizer.
Aisha Tyler
Maybe the nails are a little stubby and gnawed on, but I definitely do not have man hands.
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
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
I have always been a softie, and I fight it with every fiber of my being. Sadly, my being's fibers need to hit the gym.
Aisha Tyler
I spent most of my seventh grade summer dehydrated, green-tongued, and smelling like a Malaysian whorehouse.
Aisha Tyler
I don't want to be pandered to, so I try not to pander.
Aisha Tyler
Omnipresence can be a good or bad thing, I suppose. I don't want to spend a lot of time thinking about it. I'm super-grateful.
Aisha Tyler
I take the most wrenchingly painful moments of my life, brush them off and present them for the amusement of others. Luckily for me, my childhood was torture.
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
I'm my own boss and my boss is a total ass.
