More quotes by Margaret Cho
The stuff I do and say onstage I can do easily. As a performer, that comes easily. But being social offstage, it's not easy for me.
Margaret Cho
All the songs on Yankee Hotel Foxtrot are the encapsulation of heterosexual love. I have different records for gay sex.
Margaret Cho
This was an era where I was going out every night seeing Sparks, Berlin, Duran Duran, and Split Enz. Amazing acts doing really weird stuff, and I was very open to music and letting it transform me.
Margaret Cho
My philosophy is, murder the rapist in your mind so you stop killing yourself. I've seen, in my lifetime, that sexual abuse has turned into self-abuse. When I kill the rapist inside of me, I will stop killing myself.
Margaret Cho
I don't really know what 'selling out' is exactly. I would sell out if I could, but nobody's buying it. I would love to go mainstream, but my comedy is too edgy. It's always too dirty. It's always too filthy. I'm dying to sell out. But I love doing comedy, I love touring, and I think I would do everything for free.
Margaret Cho
Some people are that - more than a parent, more than a role model, more than anything less than a religion.
Margaret Cho
Now on Facebook I have all these 'friends' who used to bully me, and they're like, 'We're so proud! We love you!' They come to shows and want to take a picture, and they're like, 'Don't you remember us?' And I'm like, 'I'm sorry, I don't.' And I feel bad, but I feel good.
Margaret Cho
Comedy is quite a difficult place for queers and for women.
Margaret Cho
George Bush isn't Hitler. He could be if he applied himself.
Margaret Cho
I don't like catchphrases either. A current one would be, Bye, Felicia. It's used so much that we don't even know the origin anymore.
Margaret Cho
The newest victims of the nation's foreclosure crisis are pets, which is extremely distressing to me.
Margaret Cho
My attitude toward peace does not depend on which war we are discussing. I think that words should do the work of bombs.
Margaret Cho
It's always considered bad taste to comment on a tragedy right when it's happening, but I love when something is considered too soon to talk about because then you can blast past that social censorship to get into something real.
Margaret Cho
My history in show business spans over a quarter of a century, and I have seen many people in the industry struggle with coming out, only to find much more success after they finally did.
Margaret Cho
In America, I'm a foreigner because of my Korean heritage. In Asia, because I was born in America, I'm a foreigner. I'm always a foreigner.
Margaret Cho
I like to respond with jokes and to keep it as light as possible.
Margaret Cho
I was lucky. I always had really great friends in my personal life, people always just knew who I was. It wasn't until I was in show business where that sort of changed or shifted at first. I have always had a great support network. I have had a lot of really wonderful, close friends.
Margaret Cho
The first thing you lose on a diet is brain mass.
Margaret Cho
I'm a survivor. But I'm also victim, too. Surviving has the connotation that you've been through it, you lived through it and that's wonderful - but a victim is what I was. Survivor is the more healing way to look at it.
Margaret Cho
When I do an Asian character or an Asian voice I'm doing one because that's my heritage and my family and where I come from. My family is of Korean descent and specifically North Korean descent. So it makes sense for me to talk about that issue because it's the only weapon I have to somehow avenge my family and my history.
