More quotes by Louis C. K.
Well, I think “likability” is an overused word. I don’t watch people 'cause I like them I watch them because they’re compelling. Sympathetic is a little different... Likable just thins you out. Working to make a character likable is what kills most TV shows.
Louis C. K.
Perception is created and twisted so quickly.
Louis C. K.
Being popular with an audience is a very rickety ladder to be on.
Louis C. K.
You know what, it's not your life, it's life. Life is bigger than you, if you can imagine that. Life isn't something that you possess, it's something that you take part in and witness.
Louis C. K.
If you're older, you're smarter. I just believe that. If you're in an argument with someone older than you, you should listen to 'em ... even if they're wrong, their wrongness is rooted in more information than you have.
Louis C. K.
I like being full, every day, with stuff that I have to do.
Louis C. K.
Life's too short to be an asshole, as an employer or as an employee.
Louis C. K.
You can't direct without a good crew.

I don't have a gun, but if I did, I would shoot a baby deer in the mouth and feel nothing.

There's been a lot of simple vilification of right-wing people. It's really easy to say, 'Well, you're Christian, you're anti-this and that, and I hate you.' But to me, it's more interesting to say, 'What is this person like and how do they really think?'
Louis C. K.
I think one reason TV has always done well is because there is something comforting where you kind of know what you're going to be taken through.

Stand-up is probably the most solo performance in art.
Louis C. K.
Talking is always positive. That's why I talk too much.
Louis C. K.
I grew up watching all these crazy movies, European movies and stuff, and I guess that I always laughed at things that were a little more offbeat.
Louis C. K.
All talking is good, negative and positive. Stabbing is bad talking is good.
Louis C. K.
There's no real preparing at home for stand-up. You just go and you just do it.
Louis C. K.
The Jackass movies are honestly some of the best movies I've ever seen. I laugh so hard at them. Those guys are geniuses. If they had grown up with a different group of people, they could've been performance artists at Bard College, and people would be writing papers about them.
Louis C. K.
To me, it's very exhilarating when somebody else does a great thing, and it's not me.
Louis C. K.
Everybody is different. Some comedy is more musical like Steven Wright. His is a pillar of comedy to me. He invented a whole form and all his jokes are poems. So it's different. I wanted to do it like George Carlin. Now I do it like me.

A very painful part of being a parent is having really negative feelings about your children when you love them so much.
