More quotes by Margaret Cho
I was in Toronto when they had a severe outbreak of SARS - you know, Severe Asian Racism Syndrome.

You wanna egg rorr?

The power of visibility can never be underestimated.
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
I urge you all today, especially today during these times of chaos and war, to love yourself without reservations and to love each other without restraint. Unless you're into leather.
Margaret Cho
I mean, what's great about touring is that's what you do. You're in a constant state of motion and then you stop to do a show and you move onto the next city. All you have to do is do the show. That's the only responsibility that you have.
Margaret Cho
My father tried to get me to be around gay people a lot when I was young. He owned a gay bookstore and it had a lot of gay literature and art books and he wanted me to be taken care of by the young gays and lesbians who worked for him.
Margaret Cho
If you are a woman, if you are a person of color, if you are gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, if you are a person of size, if you are person of intelligence, if you are a person of integrity, then you are considered a minority in this world.
Margaret Cho
My inclination during sex always is to use sex toys. That's not something men are often used to.
Margaret Cho
I've always wanted to have tattoos. I grew up around people who were very tattooed. It's a self-expression thing it's also helped me claim my body as my own. So I think it's really positive. It's really joyful.
Margaret Cho
