It means a lot in that I always felt invisible, and I was louder in my own head than I was verbally, ... I was torturing myself, wanting to say things and not knowing how to be. The stand-up was a way out but it never came easy.

Shows should just be able to be shows without hyphenating their lead characters, ... (With) us, they feel like they need to somehow label it to say, `All right, this is what you're going to be watching, so are you sure you want to watch?' But they don't do it to people who are Jewish or African American. Because we have the muscle but we need the voice to say you can't do that to us. Just watch because you think the shows are funny. |

The guy is like Honduran-German. Why would you pretend to be (Mexican)? . . . I think he had that intention from the beginning that he was going to play Mexican. |
The putts break toward the diamond lane on the freeway here. I had a putt break toward a call box, so I know it depends on what lane. I missed a two-footer because a guy was changing his tire in my line. |
We have so many people in the camp that it's difficult for everybody to find a porta-potty. With 90,000 people at a game, you can imagine 10,000 standing in line. |
We saw this with [former Serbian leader] Slobodan Milosevic. We saw this with [former Liberian president] Charles Taylor. There is no reason knowing what we know now to reinvent the same scenario with a quite erratic Iranian leader. And while we don't have responsibility for that Iranian leader, we do have a responsibility for the outcomes of [policies] which will only further aggravate a situation rather than accomplish our goals. |
We're at a critical moment with regard to Sudanese sanctions and the ability to send a clear message to the government in Khartoum that the international community now means business, enough is enough. |
