Aufstehen / Standup Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Aufstehen / Standup:

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'm a comedy geek so anything comedy related, whether that's standup shows, improv shows, I'm all over that. That's my favorite way to be entertained always.

Rashida Jones

I'm not a standup. I don't really have jokes. I don't have 10 minutes. It took a while for me to realize this.

Julia Sweeney

Metal is easily my favorite thing - Exodus and Anthrax and Megadeth - so it just kind of organically came through in the standup act.

Brian Posehn

I went to school with Steven Wright, who was the shyest guy I knew, and one day someone suddenly told me that he was in a club doing standup comedy. I went down to his club and he was great. Another friend of mine, who was pretty much a thief by trade, was hosting the show. So I thought, 'If these guys can do it, then so can I.'

Denis Leary

Standup keeps me grounded and keeps me in touch. I get to go from small towns to big cities, across Canada and the U.S., and you're out there and talking to people. You get a sense of what they respond to.

Howie Mandel

I just kind of went from being a standup, one-man band, to then kind of breezing back and working with other people. And now I'm just trying to be a legitimate guy who pays the rent, you know.

Mike Binder

I had never done a roast, but I really wanted to, because it's so different from standup.

Dane Cook

I'd like to go back to standup. I don't like to think I've done my last gig. At the moment it terrifies me, I get really nervous. It's a great buzz when it goes well.

Mackenzie Crook

I've sold shows based on my standup twice to CBS, but they've never gone past the script stage. TV is very competitive.

Maz Jobrani

Until I started doing standup, there were some very bleak days.

Larry David

Unquestionably, standup comedy is and has always been an art form.

Shelley Berman

If I'm a game show host, will someone buy a ticket to see me do standup? To do a dramatic role in a movie?

Howie Mandel

When you're a standup comic, you get up and you try stuff, and you're always kind of seeing how far you can push things.

Aasif Mandvi

I love standup, but not the grind of traveling and dealing with club owners.

Judy Gold

I'm a singer and performer in a hybrid show that's standup, music and audience participation.

Jason Alexander

The thing about the performance part... starting with improv and standup, you're starting with yourself as the character, and I don't feel as much like, 'Oh, I'm a vessel for -' I feel like someone who calls themselves an actor is a vessel.

Ilana Glazer

I just like doing standup, that's all I'm interested in or good at.

Norm MacDonald

People would say, Can we develop a sitcom around you? and I would say, Not interested. I'm very happy doing standup and writing and taking my kids to school.

Jeff Foxworthy

When you improvise, you work off the laughs from the audience, but when you step on stage to do standup, it's silent.

Aubrey Plaza

I think expressing yourself and working hard can't help but have great results. Look at Zach Galifanakis. He didn't tweet. He didn't have a podcast. He just went out and did the funniest standup you'll ever see in your life. And he was rewarded for that.

Scott Aukerman

I did standup for a lot of years, too, but when you come out as a standup, you get the feeling from a crowd - it's a kind of a 'make me laugh' attitude. But when you come out as an improvisor, they realize that they're suggesting everything you do. So they're already invested in the scene, and they actually want it to work.

Ryan Stiles

I would call it a comedy variety show. We have some people just doing straight standup. We usually try to have one musical act of sort. So its just people being funny in different ways, not just sketch, not just standup, not just characters, all of those things.

Todd Barry

I think comedians should focus on what makes them happy, what art form fulfills them the most. Don't be calculated about it and say, 'Okay, I'm gonna tweet, and I'm gonna podcast, and I'm gonna do standup, and one of those things is going to lead me to my own TV show.' I don't think that should be the goal.

Scott Aukerman

When I said I could beat Alexander Gustafsson in a standup fight, people laughed at me. They thought, 'No way.' But I believe in what I'm seeing every day.

Daniel Cormier

You reach a point when you say to yourself, 'Do I want to keep doing this?' There are other things on my plate I want to do - I've been writing a play; I've been neglecting my standup.

Joy Behar

Standup really is a young man's game, a single young man's game. Even when I was younger, when I wasn't single, it was hard to be on the road because you go through relationships because your girlfriend kinda got tired of you being gone.

Kevin Nealon

I didn't have any terrible survival jobs. The main job I had before I was able to transition over to acting full-time was working at an after-school program at a middle school teaching improv and standup. So even when I had a regular job, I was still lucky enough to be doing the stuff I loved in some way.

Nick Kroll

But I also know in standup, there's nowhere to hide. You get on stage and you deliver, or you are eviscerated and you are thrown into a pile of bodies at the bottom of a mountain.

Rob Delaney

I'm in this for the long haul, I want to be doing this until I die. I am a standup comedian. I know a lot of people say I'm not, but I am.

Stewart Lee

The most memorable performance was my appearance in concert in Carnegie Hall. The first standup to do so.

Shelley Berman

I was a standup comedian, which is kind of like writing and directing yourself.

Paul Feig

I've actually never done standup before.

Jane Lynch

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 had a great time on News Radio, I got to make tons of money in relative obscurity and learn a lot about the TV biz and work on my standup act constantly. It was a dream gig.

Joe Rogan

As a standup, I try to change the world. As an entertainer, I try to entertain. And as a lesbian, I try to pick up the prettiest girl in the room.

Lea DeLaria

I never really saw myself as a standup comedian. I always just thought of myself as someone who used the eight minutes or 10 minutes she was allotted and had a blast.

Kristen Schaal
