Monogamy is so weird. Like when you know their name and stuff.

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
Your goal is to write that masterpiece. Yello's masterpiece was Oh Yeah. Whatever I say about the song doesn't matter, because it has a huge impact on how we remember the era.
Margaret Cho

I helped deliver one of my best friend's children. I just was so amazed by my friend, because she was not just a woman, she was not just a mother. At that moment she was creation she was life she was God. And as I looked in her eyes, BOOM! Her pussy exploded.
