More quotes by Margaret Cho
I really love Steve Martin and all the stuff he did in the '70s. I think it's really great.
Margaret Cho
We should retain our anger in the face of injustice and not be shamed by that.
Margaret Cho
The first thing you lose on a diet is brain mass.
Margaret Cho
I was about 17 or 18 and there were a lot of clubs and dancing. It was the beginning of rave culture and a lot of ecstasy. Because of all the drugs, there are certain songs that make me feel high.
Margaret Cho
Grow up and let anyone try to content with the adult you.
Margaret Cho
No wonder all the great comedians had such destructive private lives. ... After you get the audience into that kind of frenzy, and you are being worshiped like the false idol you are, how do you leave the stage and transition back into real life? ... What is there left to do but set yourself on fire?
Margaret Cho
For women in my family, in Korean culture, women are really valued in their youth, and then when they get older, it's like they almost become irrelevant.
Margaret Cho
I was like, Am I gay? Am I straight? And I realized...I'm just slutty. Where's my parade?
Margaret Cho
When we're talking about feminism, I get sort of lost in the argument. Because as a woman of color, I don't know where I belong in this argument. Where do I say, 'I would be happy to have less money'? How do you fight for your rights when I'm super-grateful to be here at all?
Margaret Cho
Comedians and people in general have a cultural right to talk about their own culture and race.
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
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
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
I don't like people telling other people what to do. Sex work for a lot of women is really important, especially in countries where women don't have a lot of power. Here we can have at least some form ... of making money.
Margaret Cho
I just think women are funnier than men.
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
I don't want to hurt anybody because of their looks. That's been used to hurt me so much.
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 think comedy is an angry art form it's an outsider art form. Anger and comedy are really connected. If I'm angry about something I will try to think about something funny about it to lighten the load of the anger and cope with the anger.
Margaret Cho
I became a comedian because I didn't want to be bullied anymore. Onstage I was safe.
