More quotes by Sarah Silverman
We deserve quality lives with equality.
Sarah Silverman
I feel so confident and awesome and sexy when I'm with people who are older than me, and I've always been surrounded by people who are older than me. But to be vital in comedy, you have to exist in a world that's dominated by young people.
Sarah Silverman
Everyone's got their own velocity, and there's no real time frame with comedy.
Sarah Silverman
I was sent to sleepover camp since I was 6, and you know, it's a recipe for disaster.
Sarah Silverman
If you quit being cunty, the whole world will stop being against you.

Someone on Twitter sent me a page from a textbook. It had a picture of a football player next to a picture of me. The juxtaposition was meant to illustrate two meanings of offensive. Seriously. It broke my heart. It's that accepted what I do is offensive?

Sarah Silverman
I don't set out to offend or shock, but I also don't do anything to avoid it.
Sarah Silverman
It's funny how people will think I'm being sarcastic a lot and joking. So I'll say, I like your dress, and they'll go (bleep) you! Or I say something serious and they go, Oh, yeah, ha-ha. They're strangers. They're people who know me from comedy, but luckily I am on pretty much all the time!
Sarah Silverman
I'm lucky because I intentionally keep my overhead low, and so I can say, No, thank you.
Sarah Silverman
I love making videos on my couch. You can put those on the Internet fast. I can express myself.
Sarah Silverman
You know, I think whatever a comic talks about onstage is all they talk about offstage.
Sarah Silverman
People say I'm a nice girl saying terrible things. I tend to say the opposite of what I think. You hope that the absolute power of that transcends, and reaches the audience.
Sarah Silverman
I think maybe I became funny because as a kid, I was a Jew in a town of no Jews, and being funny just instinctively came about as a way to put people at ease around me.
Sarah Silverman
The worst thing that can happen for people who don't want women to be strong is that we help each other and become a force.
Sarah Silverman
People who follow their religion to the letter of the law are just silly. I mean, I want to tell Hasidic Jews I promise you, God will not mind if you wear a nice cotton blend in the summer.
