“I don't focus on emotion”: Steven Wright has the secret to longevity in comedy | Salon Talks

[@robinraan]

I once was alone with Steven Wright in the Van Gogh room in the Boston museum of fine arts. I didn’t want to disturb him because he had a half smile and I figured that he was working on a joke, so I looked at the paintings . I have always loved him.

Steven is the GOAT. No one is even close.

[@anthonysandoval9275]

He is so fun, a perfect delivery. His style, is definitely his own.

Excellent, excellent conversation.

Watch the late late show episode with Craig Ferguson, Stephen Wright, Josh Robert Thompson and Brittany Murphy. A work of art. 😂

9:29 😂😂 "You don't like talking about your family, or about any personal things at all with the public... So anyway, we're gonna get into that and I'll ask you question about it though" ..then Steven's spit take☕️😅

[@maryoconnor9578]

I LOVE him.

A beautiful explanation of how artists are simply vessels through which the muse works....that may sound fuken stupid but that's how it all happens.

I'd like to suggest a tour: Steven Wright and Stephin Merritt (of the Magnetic Fields). What would that tour be called? Any thoughts?

[@mollymidway]

[@davidreidenberg9941]

The book is an acquired taste. Must be read more than once.

I wonder if he talks like this at home.
