As soon as a woman is old enough to have an opinion and have a voice and be unafraid, she's very much encouraged by all sorts of people to crawl under a rock and die. And it's so weird. My crime is not dying.

Traditionally, I have no right to talk about race. I'm white; I didn't grow up in an all-black neighborhood. But the license I see for myself is I'm a member of the world.

I can see myself adopting. I'm not in a rush to do it. I'm 39, I know, but I do love kids, and I'm very good - I've got a lot of really good moves.
Sarah Silverman -
I'm Jewish, but I'm totally not.
Sarah Silverman -
I think that whenever a Jew has any kind of notoriety, good or bad, the Jews find it to be good.
Sarah Silverman -
I think I've been called edgy - but in all honestly, there is a safety in what I do because I'm always the idiot.

Summer camp: the second worst camp for Jews.
Sarah Silverman -
I grew up in a house where there were no taboos, so it came originally from a pretty innocent place, where I was shocked at the things that shocked people.

I feel so confident and awesome and sexy when I'm with people who are older than me, and I've always been surrounded by people who are older than me. But to be vital in comedy, you have to exist in a world that's dominated by young people.
Sarah Silverman -
Smells definitely do have a crazy impact on me.
Sarah Silverman -
People can't help what topics cut them deep. It all depends on who's inferring - and what the contexts of their lives are at the time.

I'm lucky a couple of filmmakers have seen beyond what you're saying.

When I was 9 or 10 years old, my dad took me over to a neighboring farm to help get stuff for the meal. The farmer, Vic, told me to look at all the turkeys and pick one out. I saw a cute one with a silly walk and cried, 'Him!' Before my pointing finger had even dropped to my side, Vic had grabbed the turkey by the neck and slit the animal's throat. Blood and feathers went flying. I had sentenced that turkey to death! Up until then, I didn't know where meat came from—and I've been a vegetarian ever since.

I like to think of myself as 'hot-larious' I'm cute, but I'm totally approachable.

The reason the rest of us remember, like, when John Lennon died, is because it's a moment when adrenaline is surging.
Sarah Silverman -
I've never had an abortion. And I don't know if I would. But, it doesn't mean that I wouldn't fight to the death for women to make their own choices for their own human bodies.
Sarah Silverman -
I learned that people in wheelchairs are allowed to have marathons … which, to me, seems like cheating, but what are you gonna say?
Sarah Silverman -
Nothing is taboo if you have an angle on it. That said, critiquing women's human shells isn't my thang. Though there's probably something funny or interesting to be said about those who do it, and what that comes from.
Sarah Silverman -
Earlier in my career, I was really tight, really together, and knew who I was and I was confident. I kind of feel in between now.
Sarah Silverman -
People are always introducing me as Sarah Silverman, Jewish comedienne. I hate that! I wish people would see me for who I really am — I'm white!

Sometimes a joke that doesn't work just needs a breath or a little word or the tiniest little change to be fixed.
Sarah Silverman -
I love making videos on my couch. You can put those on the Internet fast. I can express myself.
Sarah Silverman -
Someone on Twitter sent me a page from a textbook. It had a picture of a football player next to a picture of me. The juxtaposition was meant to illustrate two meanings of "offensive." Seriously. It broke my heart. It's that accepted what I do is offensive?
Sarah Silverman -
You have to take the chance to bomb and disappoint audiences.
