More quotes by 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'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 can tell you this: Stand-up is not glamorous.
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
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
Maybe the nails are a little stubby and gnawed on, but I definitely do not have man hands.
Aisha Tyler
On general principle, I boycott shows that don't employ actors.
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
Marriage isn't a carnival ride.
Aisha Tyler
Wounds turn into scars and scars make you tough.
Aisha Tyler
I always tell people that if you really want to know somebody, they should listen to that person's interview with me. I spend a lot of time with my guests.
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
I'm such a geek, and have always been a real nerd.
