Norm MacDonald
Many frequently change their principles, but seldom their practices.
Norm MacDonald
I've been offered political shows before, and I don't know anything about politics and I feel uncomfortable making political opinions - there's consequences to them.

Norm MacDonald
The Rolling Stones reunited for a twenty-fifth anniversary tour last week. Keith Richards said that he's happy to continue to do what he's been doing for the past twenty-five years: cheating death.
Norm MacDonald
It is easier to hate those we love, than love those whom we have hated.
Norm MacDonald
