More quotes by Margaret Cho
I always felt like an outsider growing up. In school, I felt like I never fit in. But it didn't help when my mother, instead of buying me glue for school projects, would tell me to just use rice.
Margaret Cho
In my life, I don't wear makeup, I don't care about any of the trappings of the feminine, or how I look in photographs. To me, it's irrelevant, which I think is really shocking to people in the industry that I'm in, because it's like, You should always look good, but I honestly don't care. It's not important to me.
Margaret Cho
Being called ugly and fat and disgusting to look at from the time I could barely understand what the words meant has scarred me so deep inside that I have learned to hunt, stalk, claim, own and defend my own loveliness.
Margaret Cho
I went to a performance-art high school, and a teacher there was signing me up for open-mic nights at the comedy club. I think about it now, and I think, 'Well, that may be inappropriate,' but it was great!'
Margaret Cho
I think I heard it [ Ferris Bueller's Day Off ] earlier. This was being played on a station in San Francisco called Live 105, which was a new wave station. It was one of the first stations to change its format in the early '80s. There was this wave of really strange music coming from Europe like Kraftwork and Freur.
Margaret Cho
Let's not hate ourselves. We are all we have. We cannot change anything until we accept that. I cannot do this alone. I don't love myself enough to do it alone, but I can do it if we have a pact, if I am keeping up my end of the bargain. I have been a longtime perpetrator of hate crimes against myself, and I am turning myself in. I have had enough.
Margaret Cho
If I'm talking to a guy who's straight and cute and single, I'm like 'are you a unicorn?'
Margaret Cho
I was in Toronto when they had a severe outbreak of SARS - you know, Severe Asian Racism Syndrome. I was in the airport and there were these big snowboarder guys and they had white masks around their necks, and as soon as they saw me, they put their masks on. So I went cough, cough, cough... You wanna egg rorr?
Margaret Cho
I think that failure is just as important as success. In a way, failure is a kind of success if you can look at it in the right way, if you can accept it and enjoy it in the right way.
Margaret Cho
Things that are in bad taste are often renegade and rebellious. They go against the status quo, and the laws of decorum and modesty. And that can be really thrilling.
Margaret Cho
My parents never really had that much money, so I kind of live in the same world that they do.
Margaret Cho
I think white people like to tell Asian people how they should feel about race because they're too scared to tell black people.
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 love fashion, I'm actually a pretty talented seamstress, so I can make stuff for myself, but that's really time-consuming.
Margaret Cho
I don't know why it's anyone's business! People do what they need to do. I did it, and it was nowhere near as traumatic as being raped. I was so numb for so long that sex work for me was not a big deal.
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
strange, there's so much religion in the world, but only enough to make us fight over who is right, not enough to make us love one another.
Margaret Cho
I could definitely rock out to Kraftwerk's Tour De France, Tubeway Army, or Gary Numan. All of that stuff has an infectious beat, but with Oh Yeah, I can't even identify what's going on. It sounds like typewriter keys, a couple of synth notes and then this really deep Oh yeah, which I always picture as Andre The Giant on vocals.
Margaret Cho
I am a big Ellen fan. I have been one for quite a long time now. I used to do the local news talk shows with her in San Francisco, when we were both still kids.
Margaret Cho
As a woman of color you have little more permission to go deeper and question things because your identity, in a way, is a shield. But if you come at it from a minority status, my person, who I am, softens the blow of whatever it is that I'm saying, because I am that.
Margaret Cho
