Quotes by Andy Dick
I've always been with God, even in my darkest hour. That is why I say I am alive. I mean, I should have died a number of times.
I really have to edit myself - I need someone with a censor button around me all the time. I'm just a little unaware of what's deemed appropriate.
I know it's corny, but laughter is a two-way gift, and hearing people laugh just warms me through and through.
In terms of being vulgar, I don't think you need to be violent unless it's slapstick, violence to yourself. That can be funny - we've all tripped and fallen on our faces.
I say, 'I'm bi, my love knows no gender,' and the straight community says, 'Oh right, that's just a cover-up - you're gay!' And the gay community says, 'Yeah right, that's just a cover-up - you're gay.' They both want to push me gay.
There are all kinds of addictions, and I've got every single one. If you set me in front of anything, I will do it until I ram it into the ground and it's done working for me.
I wish over the years I had kept my private life private and my professional life a little more professional.
Straight people say, ‘You know you’re just gay,’ and gay people say, ‘You know you’re just gay.’ There is such a thing as bisexual!
The Internet is a great place to find unconventional comedy that you can’t find anywhere else.
