More quotes by John Oliver
Politicians don't really bring up religion in England.
John Oliver
It really helps a comedian to be an outsider.
John Oliver
I watch one news channel until my soul can't take it anymore. It's the background of my life.
John Oliver
My family is from Liverpool, so I have some of those vowel sounds, I've got the slack tone of someone from Birmingham, and then I was raised in Bedford, which is just north of London. So my accent, if it's possible, makes even less sense to a Brit than to an American.
John Oliver
News is not a game show. You don't win a car if you happen to be right.
John Oliver
I would hate to meet myself at 15.
John Oliver

John Oliver
Democracy is like a tambourine, not everyone can be trusted with it.
John Oliver
I feel non-stop Brit shame!
John Oliver

John Oliver
The poverty line is like the age of consent: if you find yourself parsing exactly where it is, you’ve probably already done something very, very wrong.
John Oliver
Americans just don't understand dry wit.
John Oliver
A Southern accent is not a club in my bag.
John Oliver
Florida, just because you're shaped like some combination of a gun and a d*ck doesn't mean you have to act that way.
John Oliver
There are so many low points with stand-up. You are perpetually humiliated, so it doesn't really matter anymore. I don't have any dignity left to lose. An audience can’t hurt you anymore when you’ve been completely dismantled.
John Oliver
I do not want to leave in [U.S.] ... I cannot make that clear enough to immigration authorities who may be listening to this interview. I don't want to leave, so please don't make me.
John Oliver
