More quotes by Trevor Noah
Comedy is crowded. There are hundreds of comedians in every place in the world.
Trevor Noah
I'm coming from a place where I have seen a different way to handle it, or a slightly different way to go through what is happening, that gives me some perspective. So I think it always helps. It always helps to have someone who has traveled the world or seen a different way to do something. That helps give you perspective.
Trevor Noah
I know that I cannot change the entire world, but I've always believed I can at least affect change in my world.
Trevor Noah
I'm always fascinated when people say, We found rude conversations people had via e-mail. Why are you e-mailing this stuff? It has your signature on it! It has a time stamp!

I guess that is the strange part of the human brain that people have studied for eons - is hatred and self-hatred. You can convince people that the problem is not coming from the top but is, rather, being created by the people who are being oppressed.
Trevor Noah
When you are honest in your comedy, you have to acknowledge the world that you're in. Through a comedic voice you're talking about what needs to be talked about, whether it's race relations or politics or anything that's happening on a global or an American scale.
Trevor Noah
I actually think this whole Brexit thing in the U.K. was a welcome example of being straightforward. With the candidates pulling out quickly, there's no stringing the people along.
Trevor Noah
Donald Trump does not take criticism well, nor does he appreciate reporting on his life.
Trevor Noah
When I wrote the book, I thought that I was the hero of my story. And in writing it, I came to realize over time that my mom was the hero. And I was, you know - I was just her punk-ass sidekick.
Trevor Noah
There's news that happens in different spheres and can be made just as funny, but it's not necessarily in the normal news medium.
Trevor Noah
I hope America manages to steer itself away from partisanship and back to patriotism we are all Americans. And as long as I can make people laugh and feel better, I'm happy.
Trevor Noah
Even now in America, you know, when people say they hate immigrants, they're not referring to a Canadian immigrant. You know, they're not referring to somebody who has an accent who's slightly different to theirs.
Trevor Noah
[I had Bar mitzvah ]it was just me and my mom. And she's celebrating. And she's reading things to me in Hebrew. I don't know what's going on. And she's telling me that now I'm a man. And I'm like, does that mean I have no chores? And she's like, no, you still have chores, but you're a man. I didn't understand most of it.
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.
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.
