Favorite quotes from David Cross
“I’m going to continue to talk about things that I think are funny, and that’s been my entire career. If you want to hear about how women buy a lot of shoes, or how marriage sucks, go listen to the guy who makes jokes about that. But if you come to my live show, I could probably spend 20 minutes talking about religion for the rest of my life. If that makes me a caricature, so be it.” – David Cross
“I’m curious, but I don’t think people in the entertainment industry are more or less serious about politics than people in the landscaping industry.” – David Cross
“The film is full of anti-gay, racist humor, which Americans love, but it’s all delivered in the ‘I’m telling the truth’ vein. He came at the right time, and he played that God-awful, redneck-proud, outspoken, flannel-shorts-wearing, ringtone-selling multimillionaire persona. That’s where we are in this country right now. We’re in a state of blurred American values and anti-intellectual pride.” – David Cross
“Occasionally, I’ll watch Fox News, as long as I can stand it, or CNN. I’ll watch it until I get irritated, but you have to know what they’re talking about and what they’re not talking about.” – David Cross
“Religion stirs up a lot of emotions in me, most of which stem from my growing up Jewish in a Baptist community in the South. I was never raised to believe in exclusivity in any religion or denomination, and Judaism was no exception. I thought it was silly.” – David Cross
“In New York, there’s not this weird overtly competitive vibe, people get along, but when you’re just hanging out, everyone’s not trying to outdo each other with jokes.” – David Cross
