I really do know football.

It's hard because you can't legislate creative diversity. I think it's more that the gaming community's more diverse, and they're going to ask for more diverse experiences. They're going to demand them.

I might not agree with myself in a year.
Aisha Tyler -
Standup comedy is inordinately difficult. If doing something else for a living will make you equally happy, choose that instead. I'm serious. Comedy is punishing.
Aisha Tyler -
The City gets more and more beautiful every time I come home.
Aisha Tyler -
Pop culture hales you and wants you to fail.
Aisha Tyler -
Marriage is a mystery, and part of it is just being kind to each other, not being selfish.
Aisha Tyler -
My goal is definitely to direct features - action movies, that's my favorite genre. So I would love to do the 'Halo' movie.
Aisha Tyler
-
Yes, I do get recognized in public. It's pretty nice.
Aisha Tyler -
I grew up on the back of a motorcycle - my dad didn't have a car until I was a teenager.
Aisha Tyler -
You know, I read graphic novels but not encyclopedically.
Aisha Tyler -
God, I mean I had so many people tell me, 'What you're doing doesn't work.' I used to have to get on stage and apologize for talking the way that I speak.
Aisha Tyler -
As a comedian, it really gelled when I started doing standup. Because standup is so much about bravery, especially in the early days. There is no doubt that it is going to go terribly for you over and over and over again. But you cannot get funny without bombing.
Aisha Tyler -
I've said this before, and I'm sure there are people who disagree, but I feel like one of the reasons there aren't a lot more women in stand-up - and there are many more now; it's not parity, but it's getting there - is that women are not socialized to look stupid or silly. They're socialized to be pretty and precious.

I think, like most gamers, I talk a good game.
Aisha Tyler -
I've always loved video games. I played 'Ms. Pac-man' with my dad, and I Ioved 'Galaga' and 'Tempest' and grew up on the standing arcade games. Even to this day, my dad will call me if he's playing 'Ms. Pac-man' and hold the phone up to the game.
Aisha Tyler -
Wounds turn into scars and scars make you tough.
Aisha Tyler -
When I get old and slow down I want to look behind me and see all the fire and the wreckage and no stone left unturned.
Aisha Tyler -
I feel if you believe in equality, you have to believe in it for everybody. And that's the way I've always lived my life.
Aisha Tyler -
I try to do more intelligent roles, unusual roles, and stronger women, and that's helped me a little bit with my casting opportunities.
Aisha Tyler
-
I have a lot of good girlfriends that I really love, but you know, most of my close friends are men.
Aisha Tyler -
Sunday is like this entertainment scrum for me, because I've only got a day, one day of fun. So I want to have brunch, and I want to see a movie, and I want to watch 'Game of Thrones,' and I'm trying to watch 'The Sopranos' from the beginning, and I want to play four hours of video games. So, it's, like, as regimented as my work life.
Aisha Tyler -
I'm black, and black don't crack. It does droop.
Aisha Tyler -
So much of a stand-up's life is doing live radio and having to be funny and quick on the spot with these strangers, and sort of surgical in terms of how funny I can be in three minutes.
