Favorite Quotes On the Obama Inauguration

Amid all the speeches and media commentary that will be bandied about today, I found these pretty amusing:

CNN: What’s it going to be like for you on Inauguration Day?

Chris Rock: It’ll be a cool day. It’s weird. I’ve never watched an inauguration. I’ve never watched anyone get sworn in. You know, it’s like Election Day and then you look up and somebody else is the president two months later. It was never like, “I can’t wait till tomorrow. Oh my god! They’re going to swear in Jimmy Carter!”

Chris Rock

“I like seeing one of our own- I’m speaking as a Hawaiian- get into the White House.”
Woody Harrelson quoted in Esquire, January 2009
