More quotes by Joe Rogan
Also I can come up with new bits - people yell stuff out and it's a new subject or a subject that I've been thinking about that I haven't done onstage yet and I'll just run with it.
Joe Rogan
I think that one of the reasons why people look towards the end of humanity is that people are afraid to die alone. If you die alone, the people you love will miss you, or if they die, you miss them - the sorrow is inevitable. When you truly love someone, the thought of losing them forever is horrible.
Joe Rogan
People for the most part can smell lies.
Joe Rogan
I had seen movies before that that had made me laugh, but I had never seen anything even remotely close to as funny as Richard Pryor was, just standing there talking.
Joe Rogan
My act is so completely and totally uncensored that the only way I could really pull it off is if I treat the audience like they're my best friends.
Joe Rogan
Comedy is really not like any other art form in that it's very specialized and varied in it's content, but generic in it's title.

Well you see, Brazilian JiuJitsu Blackbelts have a blackbelt in...... Brazilian JiuJitsu

My company is called Talking Monkey, Inc. It's because that's what I think all people are: talking monkeys.

Anytime we go to a new town I try to book a show. I literally know nothing about the club.
Joe Rogan
People say you can abuse marijuana. You can abuse cheeseburgers. Does that mean we should close Burger Kings.
Joe Rogan
A comic, all they have to do is, if you do something funny in a comedy club and you put it up on you tube, it might get a million hits! All it needs to do is resonate with one person who sends it to their friends, who sends it to other people, and before you know it, it has spread virally and BOOM! All of a sudden that person has a name.
Joe Rogan
On my left knee I have a long scar from an ACL operation. I've had both knees reconstructed.
Joe Rogan
I think there is more comedians now than ever, more venues now than ever. There are stand-ups who live in towns where they don't have many comedy clubs where they are organizing more comedy nights in bars. I just think this is a fantastic time for stand up.
Joe Rogan
The two things I understand best are stand-up comedy and martial arts. And those things require an ultimate grasp of the truth. You have to be objective about your skills and abilities to compete in both.
Joe Rogan
When I started out I was definitely more traditional. It was 1988. Everyone was doing the Jerry Seinfeld.
Joe Rogan
What people like are things to laugh at. Funny shows. It's all in the execution, the writing and the characters, not the setting. And the writing and the execution and the characters are GREAT on (Everybody Loves Raymond).
Joe Rogan
Teaching someone that doesn't know something forces you to think about almost every single aspect of it, including parts of it that you could sort of take for granted.
Joe Rogan
Build confidence and momentum with each good decision you make from here on out and choose to be inspired.
Joe Rogan
There's a direct correlation between positive energy and positive results.

Stand-up is still my favorite, but the podcast is a close second. It's so fun, and it's given me the oppor-tunity to have three-hour conversations with people I wouldn't have otherwise been able to talk to. When I talked to Maynard Keenan from Tool, I almost couldn't believe it was happening.
