We must stand up for reality, for truth. We must learn good judgement, develop our analytical skills, help our loved ones do the same, and expect the same of our leaders. We must all … well … think more scientifically. This is how we can better understand and withstand the challenges that the real world throws at us and make better decisions in our lives. This is how we can also stand up for the reality that we want for ourselves and others—a world in which we are no longer prisoners, chasing shadows in the dark, but are freer and more enlightened.
"You have a house, and a cattle, and everything; I've only what I stand up in! You have corn of your own growing; I have to buy every grain. Do what I will, I must spend three roubles every week for bread alone."

Aşağıdaki taşlama, Chris Rock'ın stand-up gösterisi Bigger and Blacker'dan (Daha Büyük ve Daha Siyah) alınmıştır:
Silah denetimi mi? Bizim mermi denetimine ihtiyacımız var. Bence her mermi beş bin dolar olmalı. Çünkü eğer bir mer mi beş bin dolar olursa insanlar kurşun sıkmadan önce bu na paralarının yetip yetmeyeceğini düşünmeye başlayacak. Masum insanlar vurulmayacak, vurulsa bile ateş edenler gelip, "Malımı bana geri verin!" diyecekler.

“I’m never going to be able to go as far out, or to stay as long, as I used to. Not if I want to wake up again. But I can’t stand spending all my time in this realm, this horribly . . . solid place. So I can’t stop. And one day I’ll go out too far. And I’m not going to come back.”
Askeladd'ın son sözleri
Askeladd: Hurry up and finish me off. I am sorry about the wait. My life is yours now. I have used it all up, anyway. Not that I regret any of it. We are enemies, are we not?
Thorfinn: ...you are going to die...?
Askeladd: Do it quick. There is no time
Thorfinn: ...you think this is a joke...? This isn't how it's supposed to be!! Our fight wasn't supposed to end this way!! You can't do this to me!! You can't die!! Get up!! Stand up and fight me right now!! I am the one who's supposed to kill you, you son of a bitch!!
Askeladd: Honestly this is what I hate about kids haven't you given a thought to what you are going to live for after I am dead Thorfinn? Ha ha you haven't, have you? You are hopeless, you know that?
Thorfinn: Shut up none of your fucking business...
Askeladd: Move on Thorfinn. Don't hang on... to this petty bullshit your entire life... You have got to move on go further... You are the son of Thors so venture beyond the world he saw. That's your true battle. Be a true warrior... son of Thors...
“Planlarımızın kaçı plana uygun bir şekilde sonuçlanır ki? Planlarımız, muhtemelen Tanrının komedi programı ya da bir çeşit stand up gösterisidir. Eminim ki, izlemekten en çok keyif aldığı ve katılarak güldüğü şeylerdir planlarımız.”
“Would you just stand up?” I muttered, looking around. We were still being watched. Now there was a fucking crowd.
“Say ‘yes.’”
Now he was using humiliation rather than compulsion to force my hand. Prick. “Yes,” I growled through my teeth.
He gave me a victorious smirk as he rose to tower over me once more. “There, that wasn’t so hard, was it?”
“I can’t believe you.”
“You said yes, didn’t you?”
“That doesn’t mean anything!”
Çoğunlukla hayatın ikinci yarısının, ilkini dengelemesi gerekiyor. Sanki bir şekilde var olmak için doğmuşuz ve öbürü olmaya çalışırken, tükenmiş ya da çok sıkılmış gibiyiz. Utangaç insan, stand-up gösterisi yapıyor. Diğerlerinin hizmetine adanmış kişi tükeniyor ve ne zaman bu kadar "bağımlı" olduğunu merak ediyor.
