I don't think I'm severely politically active. I care deeply, and I have my strong personal beliefs. I think America is dancing on thin ice. But I think it's bigger even than a political issue. I wonder about the evolution of the human race and spirit and what our goals and reasons for living are.

From Garry Shandling

Without comedy as a defense mechanism I wouldn't be able to survive.

From Garry Shandling

I feel that everything I do in my life I can do in a shorter time than most men can. It's the quality, not the quantity.

From Garry Shandling

I'm dating a woman now who, evidently, is unaware of it.

From Garry Shandling

I once made love for an hour and fifteen minutes, but it was the night the clocks are set ahead.

From Garry Shandling

Nice guys finish first. If you don't know that, then you don't know where the finish line is.

From Garry Shandling

I may discuss love, and I don't mind if two men fall in love, fine. Two women, fine. But I flinch when I think of two Jewish women getting together and having a child because the idea of having two Jewish mothers makes my head explode. I have one; I couldn't handle two.

From Garry Shandling

Humor is a wonderful way to deal with our suffering because if we can laugh at our troubles, we can feel better. Thich Nhat Hanh is a special man who has helped millions with their suffering with incredible technique. But he doesn't know real suffering, because he has not dated as much as I have.

From Garry Shandling

I actually think I'm more of a turtle than Verne is. Where Verne is up on two legs and moving at full speed and doesn't pull his head into the shell very often, I in reality was five or ten minutes later to every recording session.

From Garry Shandling

My friends tell me I have an intimacy problem. But they don't really know me.
