If it wasn't for what goes on in the world of politics, we wouldn't really have much of a show.

I think the show does better with newsmakers and politicians than it does with actors.

I never believe them when they say that because you really have to sort of be aware of what's going on in the news in order to get the jokes on the show.

It's not every day people fly you to New York for auditions.

I think NASCAR's coming to Canada now so it'll take on a whole new relevance. Be afraid.

You have to be willing to ask questions that almost no one else would ask.

It's great when you have people who will speak passionately and honestly about what they are doing.

I learn something in the interviews from time to time.

A lot of funny stuff happens in Canada.

There are some people who believe that these are not real stories with real people, but they actually are.

The best part about poker is there's no down side.

Don't judge me. I made a lot of money.

Last year people won more than one billion dollars playing poker. And casinos made twenty-seven billion just by being around those people.

If it wasn't for what goes on in the world of politics, we wouldn't really have much of a show.

It was only a few years ago that I couldn't get hired to save my life.

I don't think the show would be funny to you if you didn't already have a base of information.

I was totally unknown in the television and film industry in Canada.

I am a cookbook fanatic.

I believe in breakfast. It's the one meal that my kids usually eat without a fuss, so that's huge. As for myself, I can't function without it, and I see it as a great way to get some healthy greens in, some coffee, and on a good day, maybe even some news of the world via the newspaper.

I continue to be very shy. I think a lot of actors and performers are really weird, shy people working it out onstage. I don't know why that is.

I get maximum satisfaction out of buying children's clothes online.

I hate birthdays. I thought that I only hated my own birthday, and then I realized that I hate my children's birthdays too.

I think that my love of cooking grew out of my love of reading about cooking. When I was a kid, we had a bookcase in the kitchen filled with cookbooks. I would eat all my meals reading about meals I could have been having.

I'm capable of living in the moment. And I'm especially capable of living in the moment of sitting on my sofa and watching other people's moments.

I'm shy, but I'm not clinically shy. I don't have social anxiety disorder or anything like that. I more have a gentle shyness. Like, I have a little trouble mingling at parties.

If I could live in New York the rest of my life, I absolutely would, but it's also prohibitively expensive and you have to be working. New York is a lot nicer when you have a job.

It is so expensive to take care of my hair and keep it looking like I was born with it, when my real hair is the color of rat fur.

We aim in the domain of politics at republicanism; in the domain of economics at socialism; in the domain of what is today called religion, at atheism.

I have come to realize that Jesse Helms stands for everything in politics that is anathema to me.

Like religion, politics, and family planning, cereal is not a topic to be brought up in public. It's too controversial.

I'm not an old, experienced hand at politics. But I am now seasoned enough to have learned that the hardest thing about any political campaign is how to win without proving that you are unworthy of winning.

We live in a world in which politics has replaced philosophy.

I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.

Hope springs eternal, even in politics.

Politics is about winning. If you don't win, you don't get to put your principles into practice. Therefore, find a way to win, or sit the battle out.

I don't think at my age... you can start ruling people out in politics.

The new generation of Labour is different. Different attitudes, different ideas, different ways of doing politics.

The world of politics is always twenty years behind the world of thought.

A politics that is not sensitive to the concerns and circumstances of people's lives, a politics that does not speak to and include people, is an intellectually arrogant politics that deserves to fail.

The challenge is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible, possible.

Politics is the enemy of the imagination.

In almost every country there are elements of opinion which would welcome such a conclusion because they wish to return to the politics of the balance of power, unrestricted and unregulated armaments, international anarchy, and preparation for war.

Even if we don't know it or aren't aware of it, politics and philosophy are really what make our up lives.

So begins a question which has of late become more and more urgent: what is the relation of aesthetics to politics?

The Olympics are coming... and it's a big problem in American politics, because the problem with holding the Olympics this fall is that we're all going to be focused on the Olympics, and it makes that window of opportunity for Gore to win the election that much smaller.

A promising young man should go into politics so that he can go on promising for the rest of his life.

Politics is too partisan, and sometimes patriotism is cast aside. Patriotism is honor and love of your country and your brothers and sisters. With politics I get the impression that it's all about what's good for the party and not necessarily what's good for the country.

I'm always rather nervous about how you talk about women who are active in politics, whether they want to be talked about as women or as politicians.

I am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph.
