Quotes:

Ellen DeGeneres: [about talking vs. communication] Even when we say, "How are you?" we don"t mean, "How are you?" - we don't care. Just give us a "fine" or a "good" - a one syllyble answer and move along. And don"t even say "pretty good". That's a follow-up question: "pretty good" "something happen?... I don"t... have... time to..."

Beautiful Day

Excellent

This is the best I have ever seen! Ellen is hilarious and clean. I was comfortable watching with my daughter and she loves it too! It reaches all the generations! AWESOME! I must get my mother to see this. you can relate with her on everything she says because you have either been there or know someone who has!I would love to see her show live.She is not like most comedians that have to cuss in order to be funny.She is simply herself, honest and loving.I wish the show was longer because I was was ready to continue laughing. my favorite part was about the toilet paper! She is brilliant and very open about herself and those that don't like her just because of her sexuality are missing out on the most brilliant comic out there
