The 'Libertarian' thing was a mistake on my part for saying it, but I am.

I'm never surprised by the insensitivity of 'The New York Times' editorial board.

I was born a limited-government person. I've always had this streak going through me.

I'd never allow myself to let myself call myself a coward.

Wealth is well known to be a great comforter.

I focus more on the music and my message; I'm not a party type of guy.

I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear I like my toast done on one side.

I'm not someone who gets to play The O2 and places like that, but that's the kind of rock and roll venue. The popularity of stand-up means that some people are getting to play rock star venues.
