It seems people are more willing to let other people control their minds now and recreational drug use doesn't seem to have that same renegade sense of adventure that it once did.

More quotes by Marc Maron
The Internet has usurped the collective unconscious and access to cosmic consciousness has become difficult and almost primitive.
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.
Marc Maron
It amazes me that we are all on Twitter and Facebook. By we I mean adults. We're adults, right? But emotionally we're a culture of seven-year-olds. Have you ever had that moment when are you updating your status and you realize that every status update is just a variation on a single request: Would someone please acknowledge me?
Marc Maron
There's nothing more horrifying than the possibility or the idea that you will just fade away into obscurity.
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
Comedy is obviously a matter of personal taste and the world always needs a clown and some people have no taste at all and any clown will do.
Marc Maron
I'm proud to be part of a generation where reading is a 'look.'
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
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.
Marc Maron
Dogs are too much to handle. I don't need anything in my house that's needier than me.
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
You can't avoid pain in life. It's how you handle pain, that's what defines you.
Marc Maron
Everyone is a little bitter. We're born bitter. The personality itself is really just a very complex defense mechanism. A reaction to the first time someone said, No you can't.
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 think sharing experience makes everything better. When people get talking about how they've overcome something or how they haven't, it's nourishing.
Marc Maron
The way I figure it, if you can't tell I'm high by looking at me, I win.
Marc Maron
Jokes do finish themselves. I really do see them as ongoing conversations about personal themes that I ruminate on.
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'm just looking for authentic engagement of some kind, and usually, after an hour or more, you get that. Some people talk at you. Some people just want to answer questions, but a lot of times, all of a sudden you drift away, and you don't remember you're on the mic, and you're in something real.
Marc Maron
Jerusalem Syndrome is actually a rare psychological condition that occurs to some visitors to the Middle East. They get to Israel and just snap.
