In America, to have news that has explicitly taken a position is a very strange place to be in, and it's a very dangerous place to be in. And that's happening on Facebook, as you saw, and that's happening online. People are just being given their news and not the news, which is really, really scary.

Trevor Noah
I became a chameleon. My color didn't change. But I could change your perception of my color.
Trevor Noah
I lived my life as a - as a part-white, part-black but then sometimes-Jewish kid.
Trevor Noah
Traveling the world I've learned that progressives, regardless of their locations, think in a global space.
Trevor Noah
Donald Trump was just an entertaining buffoon to watch.
Trevor Noah
If I could get an honest answer, I would ask Trump. How much money would you want in order to leave the presidency? Because I think he would have a number, strangely enough. Then we'd know how much to launch the Kickstarter for.
Trevor Noah
Here's one redeeming quality about Donald Trump. He's an equal opportunity offender.
Trevor Noah
I lived in a world where I didn't share the love for my stepfather that my mother shared for him. She married him.
Trevor Noah
It's an interesting place to begin where the country is completely divided into choosing sides, when the only side everyone should be choosing is the side of America, and then politicians essentially should be arguing about the best way to serve America.
Trevor Noah
It's the reason the United States fell into the Patriot Act - because they were reacting.
Trevor Noah
I existed in a space where my mother was a black woman and my father was a white man. And that's how I saw the world. I was just like, some dads are whites and some moms are black. And that's how it is.
Trevor Noah
I've just come to realize I'm going to share my point of view. Some people won't like me for it. Some people will. I will work every day to be as honest as I can because I do believe that we're all trying to get to the same place. But various people have tricked us into believing that we are not. And I see America going into that space.
