More quotes by Samantha Bee
Speaking for myself, I try to go out there on the stage and make jokes with people, so I'm not really thinking about the impact anything I have. If it does resonate with people, that's really great.
Samantha Bee
Christmas: It's the only religious holiday that's also a federal holiday. That way, Christians can go to their services, and everyone else can sit at home and reflect on the true meaning of the separation of church and state.

The best part about poker is there's no down side.

I believe in breakfast. It's the one meal that my kids usually eat without a fuss, so that's huge. As for myself, I can't function without it, and I see it as a great way to get some healthy greens in, some coffee, and on a good day, maybe even some news of the world via the newspaper.

Samantha Bee
Hopefully the person I'm trying to create is just a funny, dour, evil side of myself that has no other way to express itself. I don't model it after anyone in particular. Who would be like that? Who? I wouldn't want to meet that person. I wouldn't want to be interviewed by that person, I can tell you that.
Samantha Bee
I never believe them when they say that because you really have to sort of be aware of what's going on in the news in order to get the jokes on the show.
Samantha Bee
I'm shy, but I'm not clinically shy. I don't have social anxiety disorder or anything like that. I more have a gentle shyness. Like, I have a little trouble mingling at parties.
Samantha Bee
It's not every day people fly you to New York for auditions.
Samantha Bee
The people I really feel sorry for are all the writers out there who wrote these outrageous comedic romps about a grossly unqualified person who goes on to become a Vice Presidential candidate in a hotly contested presidential race. With hilarious results. They must be so bummed.
Samantha Bee
I take my citizenship extremely seriously. I find myself drawn to the Constitution more and more with each passing day of Donald Trump's presidency.
Samantha Bee
More people need to inhabit this world.
Samantha Bee
There's a danger zone if you take yourself too seriously. It's a terrible trap to fall into. I think it's the death of comedy.
Samantha Bee
President Trump - God forbid - the country will be okay, I promise. I don't know exactly what the country will look like, but we will survive it.
Samantha Bee
If it wasn't for what goes on in the world of politics, we wouldn't really have much of a show.
Samantha Bee
There's a very fine line between political comedian and activist, and I don't really think I fall over into the activist category.
Samantha Bee
Kids do have to learn that life is a humiliating charade of endless disappointment and tragedy ultimately culminating in pain, decay, and death. My parents used to sing me to sleep with that one.
