Bill Maher's quotes

  • The cable TV sex channels don't expand our horizons, don't make us better people, and don't come in clearly enough.
  • [when asked what he liked about the Playboy mansion] The food is out of this world!
  • I get the Playboy thing a lot. People assume I go out with bimbos. I couldn't go out with bimbos if I tried! I scare them off! The women that like me are smart. So I go to the Playboy Mansion four or five times a year, but people think I go all the time.
  • We have been the cowards, lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That's cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building, say what you want about it, it's not cowardly.
  • All I did was tell the truth. That's is what the whole show is about! And if Politically Incorrect (1993) has to go down for it, so be it!
  • Kids, they're not easy, but there has to be some penalty for sex.
  • I hate religion. I think it's a neurological disorder.
  • There's no greater model, in my view, than Jesus Christ.
  • [To participants at the launch of the 2011-12 TV season] Thank you very much to the three people who applauded. It is really something to be back here at the job fair.
  • If you think we can solve the environment with everyone recycling, you're crazy. It's like saying World War II could have been won by everyone saving tin.
  • [on drug-troubled mayor Marion Barry] (He) promised to get drugs off the street, one gram at a time.
  • Ladies and gentlemen, on September 11 2001, America was attacked by a squad of Saudi Arabians, working out of Germany, Pakistan and Afghanistan. And by that I mean, we were attacked by Iraq.
  • The Pope is consistently pro-life, I am consistently pro-death.
  • I'm pro-choice, I'm for assisted suicide, I'm for regular suicide, I'm for whatever gets the freeway moving - that's what I'm for. It's too crowded, the planet is too crowded and we need to promote death.
  • [on his Johnny Carson] He was my comedy god more than any of them. Also, he's just a cool guy. When you're that age, it's the same reason you like James Bond. He has control. Girls like him. Everything I wasn't. You gotta aspire.
  • It doesn't sound crazy to us, that story [Christianity], because we're used to it.
  • Sarah Palin says "I truly believe I will see Jesus Christ return in my lifetime", to which I say "Hasn't Jesus suffered enough?".
  • He was fast and furious, and I think there's something else behind there that you can't really quantify or define. You could just tell there was a humanity in Robin Williams.
  • [on Charlie Hebdo's death] Who did this? Muslim terrorists. This happens all too frequently. It's like Groundhog Day, except the Groundhog keeps getting his head cut off.
  • [on people who voted for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election] it's depressing to think you share the country with so many people who you share nothing with.
  • Democrats see health care as a right but Republicans see it as a product.
  • On finding out he's related to Bill O'Reilly "Did you really have to put a picture of him in here?"
  • [Bad Health] It's the food, okay? The call is coming from inside the house!
  • If u get a swine flu shot ur an idiot.
  • Part of the rise in LGBT numbers is from people feeling free enough to tell it to a pollster and that's all to the good, but some of it is - it's trendy.
  • Let me let you in on a little secret about the younger generations; No one wants to hire you. Your sense of entitlement is legendary and, with notable exceptions, your attention span and worth ethic suck.
  • I don't dislike children, I just don't particularly want to be around them a lot. The problem is, neither do their parents.
