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. – Trey Parker
I’ve gotten to a point where I wouldn’t direct someone else’s material. It would only be something totally original. – Trey Parker
Any job is a job. If you have to be doing something, then you’re probably not enjoying it. – Trey Parker
We created a brand for ourselves, so that now people can’t get mad at what we do, because then they’re just making of themselves. – Trey Parker
If you’re famous, you suck, just for being famous. People in England totally get that; Americans don’t. – Trey Parker
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. – Trey Parker
Saying goodbye doesn’t mean anything. It’s the time we spent together that matters, not how we left it. – Trey Parker
Careful?! Was my mother careful when she stabbed me in the heart with a coat hanger while I was still in womb? – Trey Parker
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 people laugh. – Trey Parker
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. – Trey Parker
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. – Trey Parker
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 each other and make racist jokes. But I don’t think people tune in for that. I just don’t think a show lasts for 10 years without a heart. – Trey Parker
I bought a house for my mom, I bought a house for my dad, I bought a house for my sister. – Trey Parker
There is nothing we can’t do. So it’s just the fact that we’re doing topics like that that other people, especially network TV, won’t touch, that we’re satirists. – Trey Parker
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 just see how, if you take Butters and Cartman and put them in any scene, it works. – Trey Parker
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.’ I really hope I don’t do that. – Trey Parker
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. – Trey Parker
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 people didn’t, they didn’t even know what it was. – Trey Parker
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. – Trey Parker
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 by my tablet device which is hooked into my oven, all while sitting in the refrigerator?’ – Trey Parker
