The greater the genius, the keener the edge of the satire  (Satire Quotes) The show is a satire, which gives us freedom to do anything we want. Satire is the magic word that wipes away any culpability. The media is jealous of this freedom  (Satire Quotes) I like the George Romero films, which were really great, social satire movies; really twisted  (Satire Quotes) The Irish and British, they love satire, its a large part of the culture  (Satire Quotes) Conventional show-biz savvy held that Americans hated to be the objects of satire  (Satire Quotes) There’s a tacit agreement today that the white male is the only legitimate target for any and all satire, criticism, and so forth.

I didn’t grow up wanting to draw donkeys and elephants with the names of politicians written across them  (Satire Quotes) Good satire is about attacking the powerful, and that tends to be more the purview of the left.
