I've never tried to drive my career in any particular direction. I've always been an in-the-moment, live-for-today guy. I've never had a goal, and nearly everything I've done has been an accident. I just play to me, and if I can amuse myself, I consider it a victory.

Doug Stanhope
Every vice is already a punishment in itself... you don't need a ticket on top of it.
Doug Stanhope
I love conspiracy theories. I used to just live on it. You know it's all hype and garbage, but you're still really paranoid afterwards. It's fun entertainment.
Doug Stanhope
The key to a good life: excess in moderation. They'll tell you moderation is the key to life, but that's bullshit.
Doug Stanhope
It was either me or Confucius that said the journey of a thousand miles begins with a vicious ass raping at airport security.
Doug Stanhope
Do you ever wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and think, something's not accurate?

If second hand smoke is killing that many people and nicotine is so addictive then why is no one addicted to second hand smoke?

I do good things in my life, too. It's just that none of them are funny.
Doug Stanhope
Doing stand-up takes the fun out of being funny.

The only legitimate excuse you could have for having a baby in those dire, war torn, famine struck conditions - would be to eat it.

The whole institution of marriage itself really has no place in a progressive society.
