Quote of the Day (John Oliver, on Starring in an Action-Film Franchise)



“If I was going to be in a Fast and Furious kind of a movie, I think I would be the one sensible driver. I feel like that group of people needs a sensible driver who refuses to break the law because he’s on a green card. So I would be the one driver appearing to the scene late but with his car in impeccable condition while a bunch of Lamborghinis are smoking at the side of the road. Someone who’s turning up in a Ford Cortina that has no paint chips.” —Last Week Tonight host John Oliver, “Stupid Questions With John Oliver” (interviewed by Ray Rahman), Entertainment Weekly, Feb. 17, 2017
