Saying goodbye doesn’t mean anything. It’s the time we spent together that matters, not how we left it.

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, and it’s all going to...

I was always a very happy, optimistic person.

I see Santa Claus and Joseph Smith and Luke Skywalker as the same person.

We find just as many things to rip on the left as we do on the right. People on the far-left and the far-right are the same exact person to us.

In terms of the creative side of it, it’s really been a thing where you come up with the funny stuff is usually at a bar or out talking to people or whatever.

The only way to be punk rock in L.A. is to be a Republican.

So we’re considering doing a new Christmas album, because there’s been Christmas episodes since then, and maybe finally do the version of ‘The Most Offensive Song Ever’ with lyrics intact.

My first serious girlfriend, when I was 16, was Mormon. I went to her house for ‘family home evening,’ and I was like, ‘Why aren’t you people ignoring each other and watching television?’

We made this really dumb decision to put on the cover nothing from South Park but just a real life photo of a piece of pooh dressed up like Mr. Hankey, and a lot of...

Sean Penn’s really the only one stupid enough to put anything down on paper.

I try not to tune in to politics until it’s two or three months before the election. Till then, it’s like watching preseason football.

We have it, we’re lucky enough that we’ve created a show where it’s not about… a family, or a kid, it’s about a town.

I’ve started confiding in people, other artists mostly, that I hate making ‘South Park,’ and I always have. It’s super stressful. I’m always miserable.

I got into this little habit of architecture and building. I designed a house in Colorado and one in Hawaii. The idea is supposed to be build and sell – but then I can never...

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...

When I was in sixth grade there was a talent show, and I wrote my first sketch, ‘The Dentist.’ I played the dentist, and I had my friend play a patient. It was sort of...

When you were a teenager in Colorado, the way to be a punk rocker was to rip on Reagan and Bush and what they were doing and talk about how everyone in Colorado’s a redneck...

You don’t need missionaries in Colorado; you got Colorado.

What we’re always looking for is weird social issues and weird connections to make. Luckily for them, there’s no shortage of material.

The story of Jesus makes no sense to me. God sent his only son. Why could God only have one son and why would he have to die? It’s just bad writing, really. And it’s...

It’s been a fascinating thing because we didn’t really know how to write when we started South Park at all. It’s been like, we’ve just sort of grown up a bit and it’s amazing to...

It’s not like we have a formula, but I think one of the reasons this show has survived is that it has a big heart at its center. Other cartoon shows have people crap on...

A lot of people don’t realize this, but probably the one person that gets made fun of in ‘South Park’ more than anybody is my dad. Stan’s father, Randy – my dad’s name is Randy...

People have a lot of different beliefs, and at the end of the day, we all have deeply held beliefs that probably don’t make sense to anyone else.

I grew up with the religion of ‘Star Wars,’ frankly. That’s when I realized there is something bigger out there… and it’s called The Force.

I’ve never met a Mormon I didn’t like. They’re really nice people. They’re so Disney. They’re so Rodgers and Hammerstein.

When you’re watching ‘Armageddon,’ and the Aerosmith song starts… Super funny.

Colorado’s right next to Utah – you know, Mormon Central.

Like anything important, anything you need people to hear – you’ve got to have music for it. You’ve got to make it at least a little piece of a song or sometimes a whole song.

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...

You know, and it really doesn’t have a lot to do with the movie. That’s the trick to doing a good musical is that, if you take that music number out, there’s less to the...

Even if you’re not Christian, just from being in our culture you know Jesus and resurrection and redemption.

I don’t want to say never, but I hope I don’t become that ‘take me seriously now’ guy.

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.

You can’t make experimental work by copying past work.

I can feel myself dying inside.

That was a misconception among a lot of people – that Mormons are polygamist. No, they’re not. I mean they obviously have that in their history, and there are some fundamentalists.

It’s this simple law, which every writer knows, of taking two opposites and putting them in a room together. I love anything with Cartman and Butters at the same time, it’s great.

It was exactly the same on the South Park movie really too. There’s lots of violence in that too, but it always came down to anything sexual… They don’t care about anything else.

I spend shockingly little time thinking about real-world stuff.

Me and Matt love to argue, but in general our sense of humor is pretty much alike.

When I was a kid, to me, the Evergreen Players were the big time.

All the religions are super funny to me.

I think you could take any Bruckheimer movie and do it with puppets, and it would be screamingly funny.

We’re the guys who, if someone says you really shouldn’t do an episode making fun of Scientologists, we say, ‘Whatever.’ Someone says, ‘They might come try to burn your house down,’ we say, ‘We’ll just...

How many times have you been watching an episode of ‘South Park’ and thought, ‘I’d like to be able to watch this on my television while hooked into my mobile device, which is being controlled...

My fear is that, as soon as I get married and have kids that I’ll kind of do what a lot of people do and suddenly start making, ‘Now I’m gonna make films for kids.’...

Once you have kids, you think like a parent. You get a lot more protective.

I hate puppets so much.
