More quotes by John Oliver
There are two kinds of hecklers: the destructive and constructive hecklers.
John Oliver

John Oliver
One thing that America is objectively exceptional at is overreacting whenever anyone accuses them of not being exceptional.
John Oliver
When you're dealing with serious subjects, there is a pressure to be absolutely sure that you know what you're doing.
John Oliver
Wow. Losing 95 percent of your audience in just five years. That basically makes Obama the NBC of presidents.
John Oliver
I guess the tone of jokes is often, at best, irreverent, but it always comes from a place of deep love.
John Oliver
I can't relax. I find vacations problematic.
John Oliver
Armando Iannucci is one of my heroes. As I was growing up, he was probably the most influential comic voice that I had.
John Oliver
Veterans' issues are quite close to my heart. I find it quite hard to talk about, actually.
John Oliver
