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.

More quotes by Margaret Cho
As a comedian you are making yourself vulnerable in order to make others happy.
Margaret Cho
The intention is to make people laugh, to make people happy. It's unselfish, it's in the service of others, and as a comedian you are making yourself vulnerable in order to make others happy. And it has a transformative power.
Margaret Cho
I have so much hate that it has turned into love.
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
My parents are very funny when they have to deal with anything racy or off-color. They usually pretend they don't speak English.
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.

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 thought I was so ugly for so long, and I wasted so much of my life on this dumb notion.
Margaret Cho
I think comedy is an angry art form it's an outsider art form.
Margaret Cho
Comedy is quite a difficult place for queers and for women.
Margaret Cho
We women are constantly at war with our bodies, it is hard to find amnesty for ourselves.
Margaret Cho
Try to love someone who you want to hate, because they are just like you, somewhere inside, in a way you may never expect, in a way that resounds so deeply within you that you cannot believe it.
Margaret Cho
The first thing you lose on a diet is brain mass.
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
I think I appeal to people who are living in the margins because of their identity and who need to feel freedom somewhere.
Margaret Cho
It’s like your batteries get low, and you need to charge them on someone else’s story.

I really love Steve Martin and all the stuff he did in the '70s. I think it's really great.
Margaret Cho
I love Wilco's I'm the Man Who Loves You. Nels Cline has that weird guitar slide at the beginning and the song is whispered actually.
Margaret Cho
I was like, Am I gay? Am I straight? And I realized...I'm just slutty. Where's my parade?
