I don't make a list of questions. Ever. I think a lot of my interviews are driven by my need to feel connection.
Marc Maron
You can't avoid pain in life. It's how you handle pain, that's what defines you.
Marc Maron
I always thought I was funny, but I was very sensitive, and very provocative just to get a rise out of people.
Marc Maron
The next evolutionary step is into the screen.
Marc Maron
That's an animal fable about humility. If you survive your mistake, you must learn from it. Accept that you're fragile, vulnerable, and sometimes stupid. Realize that you're not immortal and you've got to take care of yourself. And then laugh it off and fly away.
Marc Maron
The medium of podcasting and the personal nature of it, the relationship you build with your listeners and the relationship they have with you - they could be just sitting there, chuckling and listening... there's nothing like that.
Marc Maron
We need the children of Indonesia and the Philippines to manufacture our freedom of choice.
Marc Maron

I think most other comics are like, 'I'm going to do my fkin' act and that'll be that.' With me, it's like, 'What if I forget my jokes? What if I can't pull it together? This is going to be a fking disaster!'
Marc Maron
Let's be honest, this is a consumer based economy in America. That's all we manufacture here is need and appetite. We are the world's mouth. They make things in other countries, and they're like, 'Send it to America they'll eat it.'
Marc Maron
There's something about cats' self-sufficiency and their seemingly individualistic ways that I find compelling.
Marc Maron
As I became very conscious and more aware of things I got very into the beatniks and that kind of stuff. They were very important to me for a few years.
Marc Maron
Comics seemed to have a handle on things. They could sort of disarm and get control over reality. I found it very comforting to laugh.
Marc Maron
My dad is actually a manic depressive, which is very exciting half the time.
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
The Internet has usurped the collective unconscious and access to cosmic consciousness has become difficult and almost primitive.
Marc Maron
Faith in the face of disappointment is only enhanced by laughter in the face of pain.
Marc Maron
I didn't really want to kill myself, it just made me feel better to know I could if I wanted to.
