“People are gonna think that MTV censored me, and they really didn't. I really wanted to try to make a show that didn't rely on offensive, edgy material because I think it was an exercise in trying to write without that. Because I see that as a crutch sometimes and I want to know that I can do something funny and worthwhile without that. And also make a show that my parents would like and that kids could watch with their parents.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWantWritingTryingI CanSometimesShowsKidsWantedParentCan DoWatchesMaterialsExerciseRelyWorthwhileOffensiveCan Do SomethingMtvEdgyCrutchesCensored Author:Bo Burnham

“I think a lot of people do have questions about life, 'What's the purpose of my life?', 'What's the meaning of my life?', 'Why am I here?' ... It's hard to find a place where you can discuss those issues. You can't go down to the pub and say, 'What do you think the meaning of life is?' But actually, most people have those questions, somewhere in the back of their minds. And if you can find a place where you can discuss it with a group of people who, like you, are outside of the Church, and it's a non-threatening, relaxed environment, quite a lot of people want to do that.” PeopleIfsThinkingWantMindHardLife IsPurposeChurchIssuesEnvironmentGroupsLike YouMeaning Of LifeThreateningRelaxedPubs Author:Nicky Gumbel

“This may sound pernickety but I wouldn't describe myself as an evangelical. These are labels, which I don't think are helpful. If I was going to use any label it would be Christian, and if you push me any further I'd say I'm an Anglican - that's the family of the Church that I belong to. There's nothing wrong with any of the other labels, but if you have any of them I want them all.
