Direct confrontation, direct conversation is real respect. And it's amazing how many people get that.
Penn Jillette
Every day, TV, newspapers, and the Internet bombard us with a message that we're destroying the earth. Ice caps are melting, rivers are dying, polar bears are drowning, and trees are doing something.
Penn Jillette
Behaving morally because of a hope of reward or a fear of punishment is not morality. Morality is not bribery or threats. Religion is bribery and threats. Humans have morality. We don't need religion.

Cheerios bring back memories. I actually don't think I ate them much as a kid, though maybe it's some sort of Jungian memory, I don't know. But they have so much sugar, it's great.
Penn Jillette
I like things matching. I have an upright bass, a drum kit and a grand piano that's the same color. I tend to overthink things.
Penn Jillette
A lot of people, to attack an outspoken atheist, one of the things they'll do is say, 'You are as bad as the fundamentalist Christians.' And my answer is always, 'I hope so.'
Penn Jillette
If you want to talk about magic, the stuff that blows me away is the stuff that's done close up.

Trey Parker did 'Book of Mormon.' It's the best Broadway show I've ever seen. He does 'South Park.' It's wonderful.
Penn Jillette
I, my own damn self, am not a Tea Party supporter. I disagree with them on social liberties, our overseas wars, Obama's birthplace, Sarah Palin, and the conspicuous absence of tea at their rallies.
Penn Jillette
We knew that we were kind of odd and creeps, and we wanted to do odd, creepy stuff for people who wanted to see that.
