“Anybody who likes writing a book is an idiot. Because it's impossible;...” — Lewis Black Quote

“Anybody who likes writing a book is an idiot. Because it's impossible; it's like having a homework assignment every stinking day until it's done. And by the time you get it in, it's done and you're sitting there reading it, and you realize the 12,000 things you didn't do. I mean, writing isn't fun. It's never been fun.”

“When a country wants television more than they want clean water, they've lost their grip.”

“The thing that makes my generation The Greatest is our ability to hang out. We're spectacular at it. If you take somebody from my generation and sit them on a couch and bring them food and plumbing, they'll sit there and talk to you about anything you want until the day you die.”

“I was always out back swinging off the tee, pretending to be different Giants players. My parents held onto an assignment I did in kindergarten where we were supposed to say what we wanted to do when we grew up. I think you can guess what I said.”

“I've done a lot of assignment work in my life, and the only way you can do it is to make it your own as quickly as possible, and then you give it back.”

“No matter if you miss a shot or miss an assignment on defense, whatever, that play is gone.”
