I don’t know anything about politics. I wouldn’t put too much into my prediction on politics. Norm MacDonald Read Quote
I’m a huge sports fan but have no interest in minutiae. I don’t remember who won Super Bowls five years ago or listen to sports talk radio. Norm MacDonald Read Quote
I didn’t really want to inject myself into anything political. A lot of people were asking me at the time about Jay and Conan, and I hate doing anything serious. Norm MacDonald Read Quote
I would love to stay at SNL forever. But you can’t stay in the same place. People think you’re a loser. Norm MacDonald Read Quote
When I was a kid, everybody that played golf was an old man. Until Tiger showed up, they weren’t in very good shape. Norm MacDonald Read Quote
It got very tedious saying the same jokes in the same way with the same attitude. Norm MacDonald Read Quote
I’m no good at anything but comedy, which I think I’m good at. I’m absolutely no good at networking; I’m terrible at acting; I’m terrible at dealing with executives; I’m terrible at collaborating. And I say whatever I want to say. But I think I’m good enough at comedy that I can survive. And I don’t really have an ambition for money. Norm MacDonald Read Quote
When I was young, I’d watch guys on ‘The Tonight Show’, Buddy Hackett, guys like that, where all they’d be is funny. Later, I remember, on ‘Late Night with Letterman’, I remember he’d have Jay Leno and Richard Lewis as first guests and the entire point was to entertain and be funny, and I think talk shows have kind of lost that.

I miss seeing real comics, Shecky Greene and Buddy Hackett, those types. I like straight stand-up, talking about the Olympics and why I feel obligated to watch them. ‘Why am I watching archery at 4 in the afternoon?’ Norm MacDonald Read Quote
