Instead of three networks you have three hundred or three thousand. Audiences are inundated with programming, and that sometimes gives them a sense of petulant entitlement.

More quotes by George Meyer
I tend to look at the world more from Voltaire's perspective. Incidentally, if you haven't read Candide lately, it's a fabulous book. It's riotously, laugh-out-loud funny in a way that no Shakespeare comedy will ever be.
George Meyer
I'm a pessimist, but I have many painstakingly applied coats of optimism.
George Meyer
I don't remember a lot of what I write. I try to release it after it's out there so that I can be fresh again.
George Meyer
As a writer you sometimes feel the need to shake things up.
George Meyer
Advertising is a conscienceless industry, populated by cowards and idiots, that warps and drains everyone. It eggs on the worst in all of us. If I could eliminate either advertising or nuclear weapons, I would choose advertising.
George Meyer
I prefer to linger on the periphery before making a commitment.
George Meyer
I don't like that The Simpsons are spokespeople for Burger King and MasterCard and Butterfinger. In the first Gulf War, I was really upset that the Simpsons characters were being drawn on tanks and bombs. But those are things that I don't control.
George Meyer
I have nothing but respect for the purist who won't work for the pharaoh. But I'm not that strong.
George Meyer
Life is challenging for everyone. If someone can believe that he's a sovereign in his tiny domain, it's just an adaptation to life.
George Meyer
If there's reason for hope, it lies in man's occasional binges of cooperation. To save our planet, we'll need that kind of heroic effort, in which all types of people join forces for the common good
George Meyer
I don't know what the universe is all about, but to me, nothing is gained by slapping a God sticker on it. It has never been a comfort to me to believe there's an all-seeing eye in the sky.
George Meyer
Every joke can't be dazzling. And if you think you spotted an inconsistency, you did!
George Meyer
You have to respect people's suffering. To deny that the world is unfair and painful for most of the people living in it would be false and judgmental.
George Meyer
I guess I started to realize that being an agnostic was such a wimpy position.
George Meyer
When people have no interest in a subject, it's very hard to get them to laugh about it.
George Meyer
I want to be tolerant of other people's beliefs. I have wonderful friends who are religious, and I don't want to say that they're dimwits. They should certainly be able to pursue what works for them. I'm just saying that it doesn't work for me and I don't want to pretend that it does.
George Meyer
There's absolutely no way that something I do on my own is going to be seen in Malaysia.
George Meyer
I resisted parenthood for a long, long time. But having a daughter has given me a sense of hopefulness that I didn't have before.
George Meyer
Experience as much as you can and absorb a lot of reality. Otherwise, your writing will have the force of a Wiffle ball.
George Meyer
The most oblivious people are often the happiest.
