Sayings by Lenny Bruce
The only honest art form is confession.
I'm not a comedian. I'm Lenny Bruce.
Every day people are being oppressed to the point where they are becoming afraid to talk.
If you believe in God, then you're a believer. If you don't believe in God, then you're a non-believer. If you don't care, then you're an agnostic. If you don't know, then you're a Jew.
The most important thing in life is to be honest with yourself.
I'm not here to be liked. I'm here to be understood.
The law is a weapon, and the judge is a gun.
I'm not a dirty comedian. I'm a social commentator.
If you can't say 'fuck' you can't say 'fuck the government.'
I'm not a moralist. I'm an observer.
A lot of people think I'm a dirty comedian. I'm not. I'm a clean comedian. I just talk about dirty things.
The truth is what's funny.
I'm not afraid to die. I'm afraid to not live.
The only way to be truly free is to be an individual.
I'm not a hero. I'm just a guy who tells jokes.
I'm not a villain. I'm a comedian.
I'm not a saint. I'm a sinner, like everybody else.
I'm not a devil. I'm a man who's trying to make sense of the world.
I'm not a god. I'm just a guy who got lucky.
I'm not a genius. I just work hard.
