For aspiring comedians? Don't listen to me. Just go on stage and do what you think is funny.

You know, plan it as I can while I'm still young enough to travel.
Bill Burr

Bill Burr
I've had a great time on the road, I would say shooting guns with a silencer in Jacksonville, Fla.
Bill Burr
I used to think you had to live this miserable life and that that would make you funnier, but you don't. The misery will come. The misery will find you.
Bill Burr
It's a whole new world as far as getting a show on the air. There's good things and bad things.
Bill Burr
I have this weird sort of Gemini thing where I can really be empathetic and a loving person. But if you piss me off, I can be one of the meanest, most sadistic people.
Bill Burr
I'm not easy to live with. My wife is a saint.
Bill Burr
I was in NYC during 9/11 it happened on a Tuesday, I was on stage Thursday. It was a small crowd, but it took about 10 days and comedy clubs were packed.
Bill Burr
I think it gets uncomfortable when you try to act like you didn't just tell a joke that bombed.

Bill Burr
When you say, there's no reason [to hit a woman] that kills any examination as to how two people ended up at that place. When you say, there's no reason, you cut out the build-up and you're just left with the act. How you gonna solve it if you don't figure it out?
Bill Burr
Your twenties is all about taking your childhood out on everyone that you run into.
