We're built to need a thing. I do think everyone has god. It's just, who's god for you? Is it god in the sky? Is it Shantel who teaches hot yoga Thursday mornings? Is it the person you're in a relationship with? I hope not.

You could probably convince me that North Jersey and South Jersey should be two separate states. They're just so different.
Ramy Youssef
North Jersey is one of the best places on earth. I love living there. I want to raise my kids there. It's my favorite state in the country.

I've never had a particularly good experience in the Hollywood Hills. I love Hollywood, but there's something about the Hills where I'm just like, 'I'm going to just stay at ground level.'

What I would love for my 30s is to just not have expectations. I don't want to assume anything about my 30s based on my 20s other than just keeping the lessons I've learned, but in terms of what I think should happen with those lessons, I don't know.

What I really like about stand-up is there's 100 people in a room, and you can just feel the pulse. It's very human.
Ramy Youssef
I feel very much rooted in being Egyptian, and I also feel very rooted in being a guy from New Jersey.
Ramy Youssef
There's always going to be a gap between what you believe and what you actually do, regardless of what your background is.
Ramy Youssef
I always felt like the only messaging I was hearing around faith was, you need to be perfect or you can leave.
Ramy Youssef
Ramy' is based on a lot of personal things, and it's interesting to see how many people feel like it's their story. And how many people view it as this democratic thing that should represent them.
Ramy Youssef
We're not all Jon Stewart. I know I'm not. I dropped out of college. Why would you come to me for anything that may influence your fact-based perspective? I think that the job of a comic is to be emotionally true.
Ramy Youssef
I mean, the title of my show is my name. That's not because I was an established voice. It's because of a rising number of outlets, and an increased willingness to take risks. All the sudden, people like me are finding themselves in the position to make things.
Ramy Youssef
I think that religious culture and the industry of religion pretty much deserves most of the heat that it gets.
Ramy Youssef
Representation is actually when the character doesn't have lines, but the camera is lingering on them in their thoughts after something happened, and then we get to see them walk to their car. You really need to follow a character in order to understand what they're going through.
Ramy Youssef
I just want people to see Muslims as human. That's it.
Ramy Youssef
This is my point of view, and that's why I call the show 'Ramy'. I made the show that I would want to see. So it's only going to hit on certain things.
Ramy Youssef
I was in school for a little bit at Rutgers for political science, but it was very loose.
Ramy Youssef
I got a camera at a very young age, but I always kind of thought of it as a hobby.
Ramy Youssef
I try to be as specific as possible when saying 'Arab Muslims' because there are a lot of different Muslims. I've never really seen stories about us in America, at least where you had versions of our characters that weren't framed by violence.
Ramy Youssef
I think that a lot of the stories I would see was kids who are first-generation immigrants, watching them try to rip themselves from their family and their faith and kind of erase. I hadn't really seen anything where someone's trying to reconcile the two.
