Norm MacDonald
It is easier to hate those we love, than love those whom we have hated.
Norm MacDonald

Norm MacDonald
Generally I don't like traveling around saying the exact same thing. I don't think that's a very good thing to do with your life.
Norm MacDonald
Most men will go farther to give advice than to follow their own opinion.
Norm MacDonald
