Trey Parker
Any job is a job. If you have to be doing something, then you're probably not enjoying it.
I hate puppets so much.
I find Mormons adorable.
No show would be successful if you took a group of people and just said, 'You're dumb!' over and over. That's not what Broadway's about.
I have no desire to ever talk to Sean Penn.
I was always a very happy, optimistic person.
I don't want to say never, but I hope I don't become that 'take me seriously now' guy.
Once you have kids, you think like a parent. You get a lot more protective.
When someone goes, 'Oh, this group is really pissed off at what you said,' there's not a piece of my body that goes, 'Sweet!' That means I did it wrong. I'm just trying to make people laugh.
Love isn't a decision. It's a feeling. If we could decide who we loved,it would be much simpler, but much less magicalCollection: Love
I think people that have a brother or sister don't realize how lucky they are. Sure, they fight a lot, but to know that there's always somebody there, somebody that's family.Collection: Family
Something is cool until everyone thinks it's cool.Collection: Thinking
I've learned that all a person has in life is family and friends. If you lose those, you have nothing, so friends are to be treasured more than anything else in the world.Collection: Lost Friendship
I love life... Well yeah, and I'm sad, but at the same time I'm really happy that something could make me feel that sad. It's like, it makes me feel alive, you know? It makes me feel human. And the only way I could feel this sad now is if I felt somethin' really good before. So I have to take the bad with the good, so I guess what I'm feelin' is like a, beautiful sadness.Collection: Beautiful
It's all based on saying the shocking thing. We used to have a great time going to Hollywood parties and saying 'I think George Bush is doing a great job.' We'd clear out the room. I used to love it.Collection: Jobs
Hippies, hippies... they want to save the world but all they do is smoke pot and play frisbee!Collection: Hippie
When you're superhot, you don't have the time to enjoy being superhot, because you're working your ass off. By the time we will actually have time to really go out and screw around, we won't be hot anymore.Collection: Hot
When you sit down and write a song, you kind of have the idea for the song, and you sit there at the piano and you kinda just write it. And then of course later there's some dinking around with it and changing some stuff. But there's this thing that happens when the song first comes out, that sort of magic when it first comes out of the ether, and you can't even really explain where it comes from. That happens so much with music, and people understand that with music. But I really think that a lot of movie and TV should be the same way.Collection: Song
To me, every episode is like a song, and every season is like an album. There's that part of the day when you first get the idea and you say, "This could be really funny." And you sit down and you write it. There's just something that happens there that doesn't happen when you really give it a lot of time beforehand.Collection: Song
The truth is, marijuana probably isn't going to make you kill people. Most likely isn't going to fund terrorists, but pot makes you feel fine with being bored and it's when you're bored that you should be learning a new skill or some new science or being creative. If you smoke pot you may grow up to find out that you're not good at anything.Collection: Growing Up
Basically ... out of all the ridiculous religion stories which are greatly, wonderfully ridiculous—the silliest one I've ever heard is, 'Yeah ... there's this big giant universe and it's expanding, it's all gonna collapse on itself and we're all just here just 'cause ... just 'cause'. That, to me, is the most ridiculous explanation ever.Collection: Giants
I like to fancy myself more of a musician than anything else.Collection: Musician
I find Mormons adorable. I love Disneyland and old musicals, and, to me, Mormonism fits right in with all of that.Collection: Adorable
There's a lot of people who, a cigarette is about the only vacation they have.Collection: Vacation
A scotch buzz is the best buzz in the world.Collection: Scotch
The Republicans didn't want the government to run your life, because Jesus should. That was really part of their thing: less government, more Jesus. Now it's like, how about more government and Jesus?Collection: Running
Before the church responded, a lot of people would ask us, 'Are you afraid of what the church would say?' And Trey and I were like, 'They're going to be cool.' And they were like, 'No, they're not. There are going to be protests.' And we were like, 'Nope, they're going to be cool.' We weren't that surprised by the church's response. We had faith in them.Collection: People
You know that everyone thinks that in order to do South Park we must be wild, crazy, rock and roll stars. But the truth is we're just wholesome middle-American guys. We enjoy soda pop, baseball and beating up old people just as much as anybodyCollection: Baseball
Living is having ups and downs and sharing them with friends.Collection: Ups & Downs
It's an Afghanistan goat, so it can't stay here, or else it'll choke on the sweet air of freedom.Collection: Sweet
I hate puppets so much. I dream about puppets all night. I see strings on people. The nice thing is we can just take a puppet and put it in front of a wall and blow the shit out of it.Collection: Hate
I think that parents only get so offended by television because they rely on it as a babysitter and the sole educator of their kids.Collection: Kids
I just realized that there are going to be a lot of painful times in life, so I better learn to deal with them in the right way.Collection: Negativity
Well I looked in my moms closet and saw what I was getting for Christmas, an ultravibe pleasure 2000.Collection: Christmas
