They used to have a smoking section at most airports. No more. They now have these glass-encased rooms. You're not just a smoker, you're an example to other people. You're an exhibit at a futuristic zoo.

More quotes by Marc Maron
It's easy to maintain your integrity when no one is offering to buy it out.
Marc Maron
We need the children of Indonesia and the Philippines to manufacture our freedom of choice.

You know when you make popcorn there are always those fluffy white kernels that are fun and good to eat but there are also always those burnt, black kernels that don’t pop. You know why they don’t pop? Because they have integrity.
Marc Maron
I'm just very sort of compulsive and lack the ability to keep things in perspective. If I'm not writing or playing guitar or on the microphone or out on the road, I'm cleaning pots and pans or freaking out about some plumbing issue or tweeting.
Marc Maron
Maybe depression is the most reasonable response to all the crap around us. Maybe it's the happy people who need medication.
Marc Maron
I'm weird I have a very strange emotional memory. I really somehow hold on to even passing moments with people.
Marc Maron
I feel bad for people who have never been addicted to anything, because they're the real losers. You want to know why? Because they don't know what it's like to really want something - and then get it again and again and again.

How complicated can ice cream flavors be? How much can you put in there? I mean, when the flavor's something like banana ice cream with caramel, fudge chunks, cheddar goldfish and pennies - you've got to draw a line there.
Marc Maron
People who have babies tell me I will know a love that is beyond anything I can imagine, and a joy that is indescribable. Love and joy? That sounds horrifying. I have no way of knowing whether I can handle either of those. I'm much better with need and fear. They are what ground me.
Marc Maron
Once I learned how to talk, personally, by myself to any number of people, which means do radio without talking to anyone in particular on the air - I just found that my brain became very free to engage in a sort of stream-of-consciousness style of doing what I do.
Marc Maron
I'm not for everyone. I'm barely for me.
Marc Maron
The way I figure it, if you can't tell I'm high by looking at me, I win.
Marc Maron
For 15 years of my life I smoked, I drank, I used to do drugs... but during that time, I never once thought I was going to die. But the second I set foot on a stairmaster -the second- I am sure my heart is gonna explode and blood is gonna spray out of my nose.
Marc Maron
The bile makes it better. I am an information wasting machine - 100s of words a day.
Marc Maron
I don't care what anybody says, I think that George Bush is absolutely the right president to oversea the end of the world.
Marc Maron
I knew most of my radio listeners were lefty political people, and I decided definitively not to be that guy - not to address politics.
Marc Maron
My dad is actually a manic depressive, which is very exciting half the time.
Marc Maron
Jokes do finish themselves. I really do see them as ongoing conversations about personal themes that I ruminate on.
Marc Maron
When you're a kid, you always feel you have this weird kindred-spirit thing with other Jews, until you get older and you realize it's just middle-class bourgeois Jews that sort of fit a template that your family fits into one way or another.
Marc Maron
What comics sacrifice and what lives they live - I know that most of their lives, their adult lives, they're sitting around or walking around with notebooks, writing things down. Usually they're fairly sensitive. Usually they're very bright. And that makes them poets.
