Луис Си Кей цитаты

страница 2

„… когда у меня появились дети, я понял, что должен сначала сам понять что-то, прежде чем объяснять им. Когда ваш ребенок эгоистичный или жадный, и вы хотите помочь ему не быть таким, вы должны найти способ ясно сформулировать свою мысль и вдохновить его.“

„Грусть — это неплохое чувство. Я чувствую себя счастливым и грустным более или менее в такой же пропорции, как и все остальные. Я просто не против грустной части — испытывать такие чувства на самом деле совсем неплохо. Я всегда так это воспринимал. Я думаю, что это своего рода привилегия — видеть, какой случайной и жестокой может быть жизнь.“

„Жизнь – это образовательный процесс и когда ты становишься старше, то становишься умнее, я действительно в это верю. Если поспорить с пожилым человеком, то можно с ним и не соглашаться, но надо послушать, что он говорит. Совсем не обязательно, что он прав, но его неправота подкреплена большим количеством информации, чем есть в твоем распоряжении – просто потому, что он старше!“

„Я не заканчиваю есть, когда наедаюсь! У меня приём пищи заканчивается, когда я начинаю ненавидеть себя. И тогда я останавливаюсь.“

„Оставь чувака в покое, и он сам разберется, что к чему.“

„Типа всех интересует чужая жизнь, хотя им насрать, в принципе.“

„Мне уже 45, так что я либо прожил половину здоровой жизни, либо почти прожил не очень-то здоровую.“

„Мне нравится Нью-Йорк. Это один из тех городов, где ты можешь услышать: «Эй, это мое. Не ссы на это!»“

„Многие люди мечтают достичь быстрого успеха, а не пахать двадцать лет, полируя мастерство. Нет ничего удивительного в том, что люди хотят обойтись без всяких тягот и сразу получить то, о чем они мечтают. Но это очень вредно. Люди не понимают, как много хорошего есть в том, чтобы переживать тяжелые времена. Я бы не променял эти годы ни на что. Я любил всё, что происходило, даже времена, когда ты думаешь: «Кажется, всё закончилось, а я слишком завяз, чтобы браться за что-то другое». Если ты делаешь карьеру в шоу-бизнесе, бывают по-настоящему страшные моменты, но здорово, что они случаются.“

„Шоу-бизнес — очень жестокая профессия. Она не прощается с тобой по-хорошему, и нет никого, кто бы подталкивал тебя вперед, — есть только ты сам. Но если ты пережил это время, оно всегда будет с тобой.“

“I’ve started to kind of hate people, and it’s not because I have anything against them. It’s just, I enjoy it. It’s recreation.”

“If you're older, you're smarter. I just believe that. If you're in an argument with someone older than you, you should listen to 'em … even if they're wrong, their wrongness is rooted in more information than you have.”

“Because we don't want the first bit of sad, we put it away with phone,*beep*, for the food, you get a little fell kind of. You're never feel completely sad or completely happy, just feel kind of satisfied with your product. And then you die.”

“How many advantages can one person have? I'm a white man!”

“Everything that’s difficult you should be able to laugh about.”

“Bill Gates has 90 billion dollars … If I had 90 billion dollars, I wouldn’t have it for long because I would just dream of all the crazy stuff I could do with it. This guy, 90 billion dollars. He could buy every baseball team and make them all wear dresses and still have 88 billion dollars.”

“The earliest stand-up comedy I was aware of was Bill Cosby … I watched Saturday Night Live as soon as I was aware of it, and Monty Python used to be on PBS at weird hours, so I used to try to watch that. And I loved George Carlin on SNL, that was the first stand-up I ever really remember seeing on TV. And then Steve Martin. I guess I was in fifth or sixth grade when Steve Martin showed up, and he was instantly my idol. And Richard Pryor around the same time too, I sort of became aware of him, though I don’t remember the first time I saw him.”

“Out of the people that ever were, almost all of them are dead. There are way more dead people, and you’re all gonna die and then you’re gonna be dead for way longer than you’re alive. Like that’s mostly what you’re ever gonna be. You’re just dead people that didn’t die yet.”

“I finally have the body I want. It's easy, actually, you just have to want a really shitty body.”

“I think of boxing a lot with standup. I even train with boxing trainers”

“I’d love to have a shitty job. I couldn’t hold any down. Standup was the only thing I could stick with. I’m an idiot that way.”

“A woman saying yes to a date with a man is literally insane and ill-advised, and the whole species' existence counts on them doing it. I don't know how they…how do women still go out with guys, when you consider the fact that there is no greater threat to women than men? We're the number one threat to women. Globally and historically, we're the number one cause of injury and mayhem to women. We're the worst thing that ever happens to them. That's true! You know what our number one threat is? Heart disease.”

“The last jobs I had were fixing cars and covering football games for a local access TV station. As in driving the mobile van to the field, setting up 3 cameras, teaching depressed grownups and interns how to use them and directing the game from the van and then wanting to kill myself.”

“Last week I got a flu that I caught, 'cause my daughter coughed … into my mouth.”

“When girls go wild, they show their tits to people. When women go wild, they kill men and drown their kids in a tub.”

“These stories are true. At the time, I said to myself that what I did was O. K. because I never showed a woman my dick without asking first, which is also true. But what I learned later in life, too late, is that when you have power over another person, asking them to look at your dick isn’t a question. It’s a predicament for them. The power I had over these women is that they admired me. And I wielded that power irresponsibly.”

“Please stop it with voting for Trump. It was funny for a little while. But the guy is Hitler. And by that I mean that we are being Germany in the 30s. Do you think they saw the shit coming? Hitler was just some hilarious and refreshing dude with a weird comb over.”

“I can’t sit down and write jokes. I just flows in from some maddeningly elusive place. Believe me, if I had an Alaska in my brain, I would drill baby drill, and I’d cum right on Sarah’s back while I was there.”

“Whenever single people complain about anything, I really want them to shut the fuck up. First of all, if you’re single, your life has no consequence on the earth. Even if you’re helping people aggressively, which you’re fucking not, nobody gives a shit what happens to you. You can die, and it actually doesn’t matter. It doesn’t. Your mother will cry or whatever, but otherwise, nobody gives a shit.”

“I’m a vulgar, fucked-up degenerate comedian who did drugs. And I’m connecting with Christian mothers and fathers. I love that. That means so much to me.”

“The Greatest Generation gets too much credit. Those World War II guys, if they had all the shit we have today, they’d be assholes too. It’s just circumstantial. It’s what you’re called on to do that makes you great. We haven’t been called on to do anything but buy shit and get fat.”

“Drugs are so fucking good that they’ll ruin your life.”
