More quotes by Demetri Martin
I am what I eat. And I am this especially when I bite my nails.
Demetri Martin
I like digital cameras, because they enable you to reminisce immediately.

One of my favorite clothing patterns is camouflage. Because when you're in the woods it makes you blend in. But when you're not it does just the opposite. It's like, 'Hey, there's an asshole.'

I don't think I ever wrote a song. I can write a lot of jokes, but when I try to write lyrics they're the most direct, non-figurative words, like, 'I like you, I like you,'... and that's it, for the whole song. People would go, 'Ooh, this guy's Dylan or something.' It gives me a lot more respect for songwriters, actually.

In retrospect, everything is finite, but prospectively, there are infinite possibilities. I guess that's what makes life hopeful.

Sometimes I use my jokes as building blocks for larger bits. I like to draw and play music, so sometimes I do those things along with the jokes.

I like when people wear a WWJD bracelet, because it's like an example of the first thing Jesus wouldn't do, probably.

A sports bar is a way to take a bar and fill it with even more annoying people than usual.
Demetri Martin
If only loud people were even half as interesting as they think they are.

It's funny: when people always talk about the importance of role models, I used to think that was so exaggerated, but as I get older, I start to realize I don't feel that way so much anymore. If you see somebody like you who's doing something, an older version of what you are, it does make you feel like it's more possible.

I wonder if, as a society, we will ever be able to call someone a jive tofurkey.

Cotton candy is the perfect snack for when I'm in the mood to eat dry, scratchy fabric.

When you have a fat friend there are no see-saws, only catapults.

I was stuck in traffic and I looked in the mirror and in the car behind me there was a couple having a horrible argument and right below their image it said Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear. I just thought, man I hope so because she was pretty mad.

The difference between a child's toy and an adult toy is: location, location, location.
Demetri Martin
Surprise parties are strange 'cause people jump up and they yell the word, 'surprise' at the party. I came home and you emerged from my furniture. You don't have to tell me how to feel. I don't need a hint.

I bought a cactus. A week later it died. And I got depressed, because I thought, Damn. I am less nurturing than a desert.

I care about politics, but I have a tough time making comedy out of it. I was so happy to have a chance to be on The Daily Show, and I think Jon Stewart's so funny... but mostly in my own comedy, I care about less relevant things.

This is a pie chart about procrastination.
