More quotes by Demetri Martin
It feels like every day or two, people on Twitter and the Internet are outraged about something.
Demetri Martin
If I make my window ten days for stand-up, the conclusion is that I failed and that I'm not good at stand-up. If I make it ten years - if I just wait - the conclusion might be something totally different. I think it's so cool to do things in which you discover the malleability of your own mind.

I do come across people who don't like me, don't like my comedy, don't think it's funny, it's too cutesy, or whatever they hate. And it's like, Okay. That's your opinion. Somebody liked it, so that's good. Hopefully it balances out.

When there's someone who's dead and then someone does something that that person would not have liked, they say that that person is spinning in their grave. But I don't understand why they say that. Why is spinning the way that a corpse shows disapproval?
Demetri Martin
I like stand-up. But I'd also like a family and house and a yard. I want to work with a lot of people, have colleagues and on good film sets, there's people there that work with the same people for years and years. I love that collaborative spirit in that medium. Comedy is a lot more solitary.

When telling a story about how wasted you were last night, stop.

Another thing that I like and that's fun for me is to try and talk and play music at the same time, because I feel like I'm learning something. There are these little challenges built into it it's a way to push myself a little bit more as a performer.

Vampire fad just won't die. Makes sense, I guess.
Demetri Martin
There's a store in my neighborhood called Futon World. I like that name, 'Futon World.' Makes me think of a magical place that gets less and less comfortable over time.
Demetri Martin
Timing is everything. That's a cliche. Now. If I'd said that a long time ago, I'd have been original.

I like playing frisbee. It is the only sport where you can throw something at a person and it's okay.
Demetri Martin
Nothing wise was ever printed upon an apron.
Demetri Martin
I got into stand up just to do stand up because I love stand up.

I went into a clothing store, and the lady asked me what size I was. I said, 'Actual'. I'm not to scale.

You can say 'Thanks,' and you can say 'Thanks a Million' - but any number in between?
