Steven Wright

     Now I could give you a brief biography of the brilliant comedian, Steven Wright. I could discuss his noted comedic style, consisting entirely of bizarre one-liners. I could write about those things. But the fact of the matter is, the only point of writing an article (Post? Page? Topic?) about Steven Wright is to come up with a convincing excuse to quote him. Extensively. So, rather than beat around the bush, I decided to simply cut to the chase and just give you readers what you really want. So here are a few quotes, followed by a video. Enjoy.
