Ok, I like comedy. A lot. So I want people to post comedy quotes, preferably things said by standup comedians. Example -

"Religion has convinced people that there’s an invisible man…living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn’t want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer and burn and scream until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you and he needs money." - George Carlin

Ok here are some quotes from a slightly non pc guy, a late, great comedian, Bill Hicks:

"How come people always flip and think they're Jesus? Why not Buddha? Particularly in America, where more people resemble Buddha than Jesus. 'Ah'm BUDDHA!' 'You're Bubba!' 'Ah'm Buddha now..All I gotta do is change 3 letters on ma belt...'"

"A lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. Do you think when Jesus comes back he ever wants to see a fu*kin' cross? It's kind of like going up to Jackie Onassis with a rifle pendant on."

"What did moths bump into before the electric light bulb was invented? Boy, the lightbulb really screwed the moth up didn't it? Are there moths on their way to the sun now going, 'It's gonna be worth it!'"

"You know we armed Iraq. I wondered about that too, you know. During the Persian Gulf war, those intelligence reports would come out: 'Iraq: incredible weapons – incredible weapons.' 'How do you know that?' 'Uh, well … we looked at the receipts.'"

"To my delight, I find that there is a different warning on each pack of cigarettes. Mine says: 'Warning: Smoking can cause fetal damage or premature birth.' Fu'k it – I've found my brand! 'Yeah, give me a carton of Low Birth Weights.' Just don't get the ones that say lung cancer, you know? Shop around, find a disease you can live with. 'What are you smoking, Dave?' 'Throat Polyps. Want one?' 'No thanks, I'll stick with my Yellow Fingernails.'"

"How come when it's with us, it's an 'abortion', and when it's with chickens it's an 'omelet'? " Carlin

"A maniac will beat nine people to death with a steel dildo. A crazy person will beat nine people to death with a steel dildo, but he'll be wearing a bunny suit at the time." Carlin

I remember some of those quotes though, like:

This night simply wasn't our day.
If we have a good day we might have a good day, but otherwise we may have a bad day because we can have those too.

But onw of my favorite quotes was from a completely different source...

"Half of Americans don't read newspapers. Half of Americans don't vote. I can only hope that we're talking about the same half." - can't remember the guy who said it (sorry).

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, "Where have I gone wrong?" Then a voice says to me, "This is going to take more than one night.".
