The experience of being on a show that is very much in the center of popular culture is exciting. You really feel like you're reaching people.

If you don't acknowledge differences, it's as bad as stereotyping or reducing someone.

Indian culture is essentially much more of a we culture. It's a communal culture where you do what's best for the community - you procreate.

We are Muslims. My father would pawn off his Muslim in-laws as Hindus just so that he could get free pancakes.

Voter fraud does just barely exist, while racism, according to the Supreme Court, is a thing of the past.

I thought [when I was 16] my days were just going to be spent hanging out on a beach and my girlfriend was going to be Miss Teen USA and my best friend will be a dolphin.

I've always said I'm the worst representative of Muslim-Americans that's ever existed, because I've been inside more bars than mosques.

War. War never changes.

You don’t have to be a miser, just be wiser with your money.

I don't want revival...I WANT CHRIST! And if we have Christ, there will be a revival.

Concerned Veterans for America (CVA) has called for an audit of the Pentagon, so that we finally have some transparency and accountability in how DoD spends taxpayer dollars.

And this is what we called our childhoods. Little more than a dress rehearsal for adding our digits to the butcher's bill of war.
