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 like to respond with jokes and to keep it as light as possible.
Margaret Cho

I didn't appreciate the young woman that I was, or my young beauty, because I was so obsessed with the fact that I felt fat. It's never good to add to anybody else's suffering. It's an important topic to really get the gravity and the importance of - dealing with dignity.
Margaret Cho
There's vulnerability - so I have to make sure the audience is certain that I know what I'm doing. There's vulnerability there because my heart is open, but at the same time I definitely have a lot of weapons at my disposal. I have all the language, I have all of the moment - I have all of that to spar with somebody, to take anything on.
Margaret Cho

Margaret Cho
No matter what these terrorists do, I refuse to be terrorized. All this requires is just a few alterations in our day to day lives. For example, my first instinct when I receive an envelope full of white powder... is to snort it! I just won't do that this time!
Margaret Cho
I think that all bodies are beautiful in millions of different ways but I get down on myself too!
Margaret Cho
